This guide will walk you through the steps to create this tasty and nutritious dish.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Thinly slice the cabbage. If you prefer, you can use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife.
- Peel and grate the carrot.
- Peel and finely chop the onion.
2. Mix the Dressing:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise and 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt.
- Stir well until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
3. Combine Ingredients:
- Add the sliced cabbage, grated carrot, and chopped onion to the bowl with the dressing.
- Toss everything together until the vegetables are well coated with the dressing.
4. Add the Crunch:
- Roughly chop the cashews for a bit of crunch and texture.
- Sprinkle the chopped cashews over the coleslaw and give it one final toss to mix them in evenly.
5. Chill and Serve:
- For best results, cover the bowl and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.
- Serve chilled as a side dish.

Tips:

- For added flavor, consider toasting the cashews before mixing them in.

- Feel free to adjust the amounts of mayonnaise and Greek yogurt to achieve your desired level of creaminess.

- For a bit of tang, you can add a splash of apple cider vinegar to the dressing.

- To save time, you can use pre-shredded cabbage and carrots.

- Season with salt and pepper to taste, and even a touch of sugar if you enjoy a slightly sweet coleslaw.

Your crunchy coleslaw is now ready to serve! With its crisp vegetables, creamy dressing, and nutty cashews, this dish brings a wonderful balance of flavors and textures to your table. Enjoy it as a side, or even on its own as a light meal. Happy cooking!
