Prepare the Dressing:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mustard sauce, honey, lemon juice, fresh cream, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until the ingredients are thoroughly blended and the dressing is smooth and creamy. -
Toss the Vegetables:
Add the shredded cabbage, chopped pineapple, and sliced onion to the bowl with the dressing. Toss everything together gently, ensuring the vegetables are well-coated with the honey mustard dressing. -
Adjust the Seasoning:
Taste the slaw and adjust the seasoning to your preference. You may add more salt or a little extra honey if you prefer a sweeter slaw. -
Serve and Enjoy:

This slaw pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, Mexican tacos, or a zesty Mexican Lime Chicken for a perfect Sunday lunch or any festive gathering.
Tips for the Best Slaw:
- If you prefer a tangier flavor, you can increase the amount of lemon juice or add a small splash of apple cider vinegar.
- For extra crunch, consider adding a handful of toasted sunflower or pumpkin seeds.
- You can prepare this slaw ahead of time and refrigerate it. The flavors will intensify as it sits.
