Winter slaw

This rather random assortment of veggies and a fruit have become a real staple for me in the last month or so. The ingredients are very cheap, they can be stored well and the result is absolutely delicious.

Give it a try.

2 decent servings:
1/4 red or white cabbag, remove the stalk
1 medium to large carrot
1 apple (I like Braeburns for crunch and tartness)

dressing:
1 teaspoon vinegar
3 teaspoons oil of choice
1-2 teaspoons greek yogurt
Fresh herbs, finely chopped (I recommend mint, basil or parsley)
A big squeeze of your favourite hot sauce
Salt and pepper to taste

1. Slice your cabbage finely and julienne the carrot and apple on a mandolin or in a food processor. (So it by hand if you feel like a work out. ;-))
2. Mix the ingredients for the dressing and add it to your salad. Make sure everything is evenly coated. Serve and enjoy the crunchy, tangy freshness during the colder seasons.
