Challenge Accepted

I recently participated in a very fun project hosted by one of my favorite blogs, The Bitten Word. Cover to Cover 2013 assigned each volunteer a recipe from the September 2013 issue of Bon Appetit. This is the dish I was assigned:

Carrot and Beet Slaw with Pistachios and Raisins

I provided the following review: "This lightly-dressed slaw is the perfect side for a BBQ, but with it's jewel tones and earthy flavor it would be just as at home on the Thanksgiving table."

It's true. I had fun trying something new, and testing out my julienne skills! And it reminded me what a great alternative white wine vinegar is to red or balsamic. I would definitely make this slaw again.
