¼ c carrot

Cut cabbage in half using a very sharp butcher knife, then in half again. Lay flat on cutting board, start slicing very thin so the cabbage resembles long strands of noodles . This is the best consistency for this slaw. You can use a food processor and shred if you like, it will just have a different texture.

Serve with grilled foods , and baked beans for a great summer meal.
