Notes

In this carrot and apple slaw recipe, I’m conservative with my recommendations on the cilantro, mint, salt and red wine vinegar only because I didn’t want anything to be too overpowering so be sure to taste and add more if you prefer. I personally LOVE tons of cilantro (I truly cannot get enough) and lots of mint makes my heart sing, but you do you!
