  • 2 carrot cut into 2-inch (5-cm) strips
  • 4 scallions (white and green parts), cut into 2-inch (5-cm) strips

For the creamy slaw dressing

  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground

For the sweet and tart dressing

  • 1/2 cup white vinegar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons salt sea salt

Instructions

Prep the zucchini slaw

  1. Combine the zucchini, yellow squash, carrots, scallions, bell pepper, if using, and parsley in a large bowl or, if you want to try both dressings, divvy the veggies between a couple of bowls.

Make the creamy slaw dressing

  1. Whisk the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Make the sweet and tart slaw dressing

  1. Combine the vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, and poppy seeds, if using, in a jar. Screw the lid on tightly and shake the jar until the sugar dissolves. Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Assemble the slaw

  1. Drizzle the veggies with either the creamy slaw dressing or the sweet and tart slaw dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste and toss to coat. You can refrigerate the slaw for a little while, although it's best to serve it shortly after dressing it so it doesn't become soggy or weepy.
