Sesame-Carrot Slaw

I wanted to make a small side dish to go alongside our dinner of orange tofu the other night.  I simply julienned up some carrots (although, you could certainly shred them in a vegetable grater if you so desired) and mixed together a dressing of apple cider vinegar, sesame oil, and canola oil.  I sprinkled the top with sesame seeds and called it a day.  Sometimes it's nice to have really simple side dishes and salads to pair with other foods.

Serves: 4

Ingredients:

• 2 carrots, peeled and julienned
• 2 tsp canola oil
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp sesame seeds
• salt to taste

Directions:

1. Place the carrots in a medium serving bowl.
2. In a small bowl mix together the canola oil, sesame oil, and apple cider vinegar.  Toss the dressing with the carrots.
3. Sprinkle the top with sesame seeds.
