Tangy Winter Slaw

Winter is when I start craving the crunch and flavors of the fruits and veggies available in the summer months. Surprisingly, a coleslaw filled with typical winter root veggies can sate your desire for a fresh snap of texture and flavor. Cabbage and radishes provide crunch, Fire Cider, and horseradish pack a flavorful punch, while carrots and maple syrup add a touch of sweetness.

This is a favorite with a slice of cheesy quiche, or in pulled pork sandwiches!

Serves 12

Prep time: 10-15 minutes

Ingredients:

1 sml head green cabbage, shredded (about 5 C)

1/2 C shredded carrot 1(-2 med carrots)

1 tbsp maple syrup, or your sweetener of choice to taste

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp celery seed

¼ tsp freshly ground pepper

Method:

1. Grate your horseradish and mix it with the Fire Cider. You can alter the pungent kick of the horseradish: wait 10-15 minutes before mixing it with your Fire Cider, the longer you wait the more powerful it will get!
