Carrot and Apple Slaw
Description
This slaw recipe uses a blend of mayonnaise and Greek yogurt as the creamy base of its dressing, enriched with rice vinegar and honey to add balance between tanginess and sweetness. The salt and celery seed bring subtle seasoning and aromatic complexity. Shredded carrots and matchstick-cut apples contribute distinct textures—crunchy and crisp—with raisins adding bursts of natural sweetness.
The ingredients are combined by tossing the dressing over the fruit and vegetable mix, allowing flavors to meld briefly or over refrigerator time. This makes the salad versatile for serving as a side dish that pairs well with sandwiches, grilled meats, or as a fresh component in larger meals.
