Slaw
- 1 Fennel bulb, cut into matchsticks
- 1 bunch Radishes (red), cut into matchsticks
- 1 Apple, peeled and cut into matchsticks
- 1 handful Carrots, shredded (i used store-bought shredded carrots)
- 1/4 Red onion thinly sliced and cut into matchsticks
- 2 handfuls Mixed salad greens
- 5-6 Slices cooked bacon, chopped up
- 1/4 cup Feta, crumbled
Vinaigrette
- olive oil
- 1/2 Lemon, juiced
- 1 Garlic clove, smashed
- dashes Salt and pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- For vinaigrette: Combine all ingredients in a small jar with a top. Shake until combined and keep shaking to ensure garlic infuses the liquid. I don't measure the lemon-to-olive oil ratio but taste it to figure out when the flavor is right.
- For the slaw: Throw all ingredients into a large salad bowl. Add vinaigrette and toss well.
