Tuscan Spinach Slaw
- Yield 6 to 8 servings
Sandwich topper or side dish, the choice is yours.
Carrots and zucchini can be grated by hand or use a food processor fitted with the metal blade to chop them. You can make the entire salad without adding the spinach leaves, if you want to make it ahead. Fold in the spinach leaves just before serving.
