2 large carrots, scrubbed and trimmed
1/4 white cabbage, quartered

3 tablespoons cider vinegar
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Sea salt and ground pepper
Worcestershire sauce
Hot sauce

Steps:

Put a coarse grater attachment into a food processor and push ingredients through in the following order (to stop the beets from staining everything): beets, red cabbage, carrots, white cabbage, and pears. (If your food processor is a bit small, do this in batches.) Turn vegetables out onto a platter so you get a pile of rainbow colors.

Add walnuts and herbs and toss everything together until you get a big, beautiful plate of dressed vegetables.

Tips:

Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the vegetables for a more uniform and delicate salad.
For a more flavorful salad, marinate the vegetables in a mixture of olive oil, vinegar, and herbs for at least 30 minutes before assembling the salad.
If you're short on time, you can use a bag of pre-shredded coleslaw mix instead of shredding the vegetables yourself.
To add a bit of crunch to the salad, add some toasted nuts or seeds, such as slivered almonds, walnuts, or sunflower seeds.
For a more substantial salad, add some cooked protein, such as grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu.
Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. The salad will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
