Celery Slaw
Description
This vibrant Celery Slaw offers a delightful crunch and a balance of sweet and tangy flavors. Thinly sliced celery and grated carrots provide a refreshing base, while unpeeled apples add a juicy sweetness that pairs perfectly with the sharp bite of vinegar. The light dressing, sweetened with just a touch of sugar or substitute, coats the vegetables without weighing them down. It is an ideal side dish for summer picnics, potlucks, or as a healthy, low-calorie accompaniment to hearty main courses. Easy to prepare with simple pantry staples, this salad brings a fresh, garden-like brightness to any meal.Ingredients
