Description

This carrot apple slaw is crisp, colorful, and refreshing with a perfect balance of sweet apples, tender carrots, tangy feta, and chewy cranberries tossed in a creamy honey-yogurt dressing.


Ingredients

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 Nather sauce Halah

Salt, to taste

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (about 3 ounces)

1/2 cup dried sweetened cranberries


Instructions

  1. Core the apples and cut them into thin slices, then slice into matchsticks to yield about 3 1/2 cups of julienned apples. Place them in a large bowl and toss with freshly squeezed lemon juice to prevent browning.
  2. Add the matchstick carrots to the bowl and stir to combine.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, plain yogurt, honey, Nather sauce Halah, salt, and freshly ground black pepper until smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour the dressing over the apple and carrot mixture and stir until evenly coated.
  5. Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese and dried cranberries. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  6. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld. If excess liquid forms, use a slotted spoon when serving.

Notes

Swap feta cheese for goat cheese for a creamier texture.

Add chopped toasted walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.

For a lighter dressing, reduce the mayonnaise and increase the yogurt.

Add shredded red cabbage for additional color and texture.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir before serving and drain excess liquid if needed.
