Apple-Carrot Cole Slaw



This stuff is SUPER yummy! But here is a disclaimer-the measurements are approximate. I periodically tasted it to see what it could use more of.

Another little note-this tasted the best if you prepare it about 30 minutes before you plan to serve it. If you let it set in the refrigerator the flavors come together a bit better, although I have made and served it immediately and it was still good.

You will need:
1 cup Miracle Whip
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tsp apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup sugar
a squeeze of lime juice
1 apple (cored and chopped into bite size pieces)
1/2 bag of tri-color slaw mix
1/3 cup shredded carrots
sea salt

1. Pour the slaw mix into a strainer and lightly sprinkle it with sea salt. Toss it around and let it sit there
2. Mix all your sauce ingredients (everything but the apple, carrots and slaw) into a large bowl. 
3. Add the slaw mix, apples and carrots. I like to do just a handful at a time, stir it until thoroughly coated with the sauce, then repeat with the next handful. It makes it easier to get everything good and covered.
4. TASTE IT! No but seriously, taste test a bite to make sure it's to your liking.
5. Cover the bowl and pop it in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
