Default Carrot slaw

After I bought a large bag of carrots, I realized that I had two small bags
that had gotten tucked away in the wrong place. What to do? Carrot slaw! I
cobbled this together based on asst. recipes because I didn't have all of
the ingredients to make any one of them. I didn't precisely measure
anything. Just kind of to taste. End result almost filled my 2.5 Qt. bowl.

6 large, thick carrots, grated
Handful of Craisins
Handful of pumpkin seeds, roasted and lightly sea salted

Dressing is:

1/2 cup EVOO
3 T. white wine finger
Tiny squirt of yellow mustard
About 1.5 t. dried parsley
About 1 T. dried dill weed
About 1.5 t. dried chives
Salt and pepper to taste

End result is delicious!

I like carrots many ways but not as slaw. With extra carrots I would
have much prefered carrot cake/muffins. I'll add one grated carrot to
coleslaw for color and sweetness. You could have baked a carrot cake
using pumpkin pie spice for Halloween. I also like pickled carrots
and easy to make:

I always have extra carrots as I buy them in five pound bags for the
deer.

Both of those are would have been my choice as well or carrot salad. The
carrot salad I prefer contains raisins and 'tidbits' of pineapple with a
ever so slightly sweet dressing. To me, this dish is a cross between a
side dish and a dessert but like any dish can be modified to suit your taste.

I'd leave out the raisins, pineapple, and the sugar from the dressing.

Given a surplus of carrots, I would have roasted them with onions.

I did some checking and I found that most sites indicate that slaw is
coleslaw.... cabbage salad. Most of the cultures and their respective
languages have other words for salad. If a deli or restaurant offers
slaw on the menu you can be pretty sure it will be coleslaw.

That being said, I once had a very tasty carrot salad at a very rustic
restaurant just outside of Verdun, France. It was very finely shredded
carrot with quite a bit of garlic in a vinaigrette. It also had a lot of
black pepper. it was delicious.

You got it from Dutch. Cole (kool) means cabbage and slaw (sla) means
salad/lettuce. Cabbage salad.

I don't like raisins and that kind of salad is too sweet for me.

They didn't start out grated. We've been eating roasted carrots but I prefer
them raw.

That is the most common usage, but that does not mean it is the only use.

I took a car to the store today. Most people would think I took an
automobile, but I could have taken a trolley car, train car, tram car,
or elevator car.

Cole = cabbage Slaw = salad. Coleslaw = cabbage salad Just slaw
alone can be any salad.

In the meaning that applies to you, it's only English.

Broccoli. I actually don't dislike raw broccoli but I can't eat it with my
gastroparesis. I can't digest it.

That sounds logical.

There's not much that you don't dislike, and fewer things that your
ailments allow you to eat.

Won't be long till you'll be fed with an IV, Dextrose 5%. Maybe a
liter of ringer's lactate once a day. If you aren't allergic to it.
