Carrot Apple Slaw

  • 1 large sweet red apple
  • 1 large tart green apple
  • 1 tablespoon freshly-squeezed lemon juice
  • 10 ounces matchstick carrots (about 3 cups)
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepperto taste
  • 3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (about 3 ounces)
  • 1/2 cup dried sweetened cranberries

 

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Core apples and cut into thin slices; cut slices into matchsticks (you should have around 3 1/2 cups julienned apples).
  2. Place in a large bowl and toss with lemon juice. Add carrots and stir to combine.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, yogurt, honey, rice wine vinegar, and salt and pepper, to taste. Pour over apple/carrot mixture and stir to coat.
  4. Mix in crumbled feta cheese and dried cranberries. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more salt and pepper, if necessary.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to an hour to allow the flavors to blend, or longer if you prefer softer carrots and apples. If a bit of liquid accumulates at the bottom of the bowl, serve using a slotted spoon.
