Apple-Carrot Summer Slaw
Soak up those last days of summer and make this refreshing cole-slaw for the end of summer BBQ. The sweet and tart apples provide a great alternative to cabbage. It's a simple yet impressive recipe and I will show you how to make it with just a few healthy ingredients and 7 easy steps.
Ingredients
10 oz Carrots -Julienne style
3 Granny Smith Apples
1 cup Dried Cranberries
1/4 cup Mayonnaise
3 tbsp Plain Greek Yogurt
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Celery Seed
3 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
3 tbsp Honey
Step 1 - Begin with the Carrots
Place the 10 oz of carrots cut julienne style into a large bowl. I used pre-cut carrots but feel free to use fresh and cut your own.
Step 2 - Julienne the Apples
Cut the apples into small match-stick sized pieces. This will be the most time consuming part of the entire process. Be sure to watch out for those fingers!
Step 3 - Add the Apples
Add the sliced Apples to the bowl full of Carrots.
Step 4 - Pour in the Cranberries
Add 1 cup of Cranberries to the bowl of Apples and Carrots.
Step 5 - Mix up the Dressing
In a small side bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, yogurt, honey, salt and celery seed.
Step 6 - Pour & Toss
Once the dressing is mixed together, pour it over the bowl full of carrots, apples and cranberries. Toss well and chill.
Step 7 - Enjoy!
Once it's cold it's ready to eat. This cole-slaw makes a great side for BBQ meals or burgers. I even like to put it on top of sandwiches. The possibilities are endless.

Such a refreshing and yummy looking slaw my friend! The carrots and apple slices are so well coated with the mayo! Beautifully done!
I can imagine having this with some charcoal grilled chicken! Hmmmm!
Thanks my friend! I appreciate the kind words :)
Looking forward to hearing the theme for Week 3!
Woo-hoo week 3 theme is out my friend!
Get in the kitchen and do your magic!
looks wonderful and fresh
Thank you!
Looks Delicious! I definitely can see how that would be nice together with barbecue . I don't go back to Sweden very often and when I do I want to barbecue. The problem is that it's winter most of the time. So me and my dad do what we call "Viking Barbecue" during winter. We put the beer in the snow and stand by the BBQ to get warm, it's very nice !
Haha snow makes a perfect cooler! We usually BBQ in the summer months but the Viking BBQ sounds like a great way to enjoy the winter too!
I imagine Sweden is a beautiful country
It really is, I will make a post about is somedays soon and show you ! :)
Looking forward to seeing it!
