Directions

1. Prepare the Vegetables

In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, purple cabbage, and carrots. Toss lightly to blend.

2. Make the Dressing

In a smaller bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper until creamy and smooth.

3. Toss the Slaw

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and mix thoroughly until the veggies are evenly coated. Let it chill in the fridge for 10–15 minutes for best flavor.

4. Add Bacon & Serve

Just before serving, mix in the crispy bacon and top with optional chopped chives for color and aroma.

 Tips & Variations

  • Low-carb twist: Swap the sugar-rich carrots with julienned zucchini or radish for a keto-friendly slaw.

  • Spicy version: Add diced jalapeños or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the dressing.

  • Protein-packed: Turn this into a full lunch by adding grilled chicken or chickpeas for a high-protein snack.
