How To Make This Carrot Apple Slaw With Radishes

This very easy slaw recipe only takes a few simple steps, but it is totally worth it!

Start by shredding your apples, carrots, and radishes in a food processor with the shredding attachment.

Then, make a dressing out of the oil and lime juice and pour it over the shredded slaw. Don’t worry if the dressing doesn’t seem to be coming together. It will combine as it is mixed into the slaw.

Add salt and pepper to taste and toss the slaw to get everything evenly distributed.

Serve immediately and enjoy!

Cooking Tips:

Squeeze out any extra liquid from the produce after shredding them to keep everything nice and crisp.
If you are making this slaw ahead of time, don’t mix the ingredients. Shred the produce and set it aside in the fridge. You can make the dressing separately as well and mix everything together just before serving.
