Ingredients

Scale

Dressing:

  • 180 ml plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons pineapple juice, reserved from canned pineapple tidbits
  • 0.5 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Salad:

  • 1 bag (280–425 g) coleslaw mix or 4–5 cups shredded cabbage (red, green, or both)
  • 1 cup (approximately 165 g) canned pineapple tidbits, drained
  • 0.5 cup (about 65 g) macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dressing – Combine Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, pineapple juice, salt, and black pepper in a medium mixing bowl. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.
  2. Assemble the Salad Base – In a large bowl, add the coleslaw mix or shredded cabbage, pineapple tidbits, and chopped macadamia nuts. Toss gently to distribute the ingredients evenly.
  3. Dress the Salad – Pour the prepared dressing over the cabbage mixture. Stir well to ensure the dressing coats all ingredients uniformly.
  4. Serve or Store – Serve immediately for maximum freshness and crunch. Alternatively, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve; note that texture will soften if stored for more than a few hours.
