Ingredients

Carrots: 5 medium, peeled and shredded

Greek yogurt: ⅓ cup (or mayonnaise for creamier texture)

Lemon juice: 2 tablespoons

Honey: 1 tablespoon

Apple cider vinegar: 1 tablespoon

Salt and pepper: To taste

Fresh parsley: 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Nuts (optional): ¼ cup, crushed (use the 5-Blade Set – Crushing Blade for walnuts or almonds)

Instructions

Prep the Carrots : Peel the carrots and use the Geedel Vegetable Chopper with the Coarse Shredding Blade from the 2-Blade Set to shred them into uniform strips. The sharp premium blades ensure quick, consistent results, while the stable suction base keeps the grater steady—no wobbling! Place the shredded carrots in a large mixing bowl.

Prepare the Dressing : In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), lemon juice, honey, and apple cider vinegar until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the honey or lemon juice for your preferred balance of sweet and tangy.

Combine the Slaw : Pour the dressing over the shredded carrots and toss gently to coat evenly. For extra crunch, use the Crushing Blade from the 5-Blade Set to grind walnuts or almonds and sprinkle them over the slaw.

Garnish and Chill : If desired, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for a fresh, colorful touch. Cover and refrigerate the slaw for 15-20 minutes to let the flavors meld, or serve immediately for maximum crunch.

Serve : Serve the slaw as a side dish with roasted chicken, burgers, or as a topping for sandwiches. It’s versatile enough for casual meals or festive gatherings.

Tips and Variations

Add Texture: The carrot shredder is a versatile tool—try the Fine Shredding Blade from the 2-Blade Set for a finer carrot texture or the Crushing Blade to add ground seeds (like sunflower seeds) for extra crunch.

Customization: Add a pinch of cumin or paprika to the dressing for a smoky twist. For a vegan version, use plant-based yogurt.

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Stir before serving to refresh the dressing.

Conclusion

This Carrot Slaw is a fresh, crunchy side dish that’s as easy to make as it is delicious. With the vegetable slicer, you’ll have perfectly shredded carrots in seconds, making prep a breeze. Whether it’s a cozy family meal or a lively gathering, this slaw brings vibrant flavor to the table. Grab your grater, start shredding, and enjoy the results!
