carrot slaw

Every so often my mom will stop by and drop off a bag of goodies.



Last time; as I wrote, my mom left me a pre-packed sac lunch. (PBJ + banana + a bunch of carrots). Anyways I had some carrots left over so I thought I would make them into something amazing.

My first thought was, "Ooh, I should make a big batch of spicy pickled carrots" cuz I like to pickle everything it seems..



But then I started looking up pickling recipes and realized- OH YEAH. With school goin' on? I will NEVER get around to doing that. So, what to do?! Then a little light went off. It's nearly picnic season (Or it should be picnic season, anyways, ..RIGHT NOW!.. What the hell, Oregon?...)


What you need:

a generous squeeze fresh lemon juice (More than 1 Tbsp)
1/2 tablespoon white vinegar
1/2 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
lots of salt and pepper
2 cups shredded carrot

Toss it all together and let it sit overnight.
