Steps:
- 1. Combine chard, cabbage, carrot, and nuts in a large bowl.
- 2. In a small mixing bowl, combine oil, vinegar, Vegenaise, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, oregano, basil, pepper, salt, and sweetener. Whisk until mixture is blended well.
- 3. Toss with salad mix.

CARROT SLAW
My carrot slaw is very different from any other summer slaw and is so pretty too! Very simple to make and this is sure to be a hit at picnics as well as a side for steak! It is fine to make this a day ahead to give all the flavors time to blend well.

CARROT SLAW WITH TOASTED PINE NUTS AND HERBS
Steps:
- Instructions: Use grating disc of a food processor or a hand grater to shred carrots. Place them in a medium bowl. Stir in orange juice, olive oil, garlic and pepper flakes. Heat a small, dry skillet on medium and add pine nuts. Cook, shaking pan constantly, until they are fragrant and lightly browned - about 5 minutes. Add toasted nuts to carrots and toss. Add herbs, toss and season to taste with coarse salt. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right carrots. For the best flavor and texture, use young, tender carrots. Avoid carrots that are thick or woody.
- Shred the carrots thinly. This will help the slaw absorb the dressing and make it easier to eat.
- Toast the pine nuts. Toasting the pine nuts will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs will give the slaw a bright, flavorful taste. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less, as they are more concentrated.
- Make the dressing ahead of time. The dressing can be made up to 24 hours ahead of time, so you can save time on the day you're serving the slaw.
- Chill the slaw before serving. Chilling the slaw will help the flavors meld together and make it more refreshing.
Conclusion:
Carrot slaw is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover carrots, and it's also a great side dish for grilled meats or fish. Whether you're looking for a light and refreshing salad or a hearty and satisfying meal, carrot slaw is a great option.
