Beet Carrot Apple Slaw

This is one of Mary's favorites dishes to make. She is in fact responsible for teaching me to prepare it - something she may be loathe to acknowledge since it runs counter to her steadfast belief that she doesn't know how to cook... This simple salad is a great accompaniment to all kinds of dishes, like our Wild Rice Pilaf with Cherries and Grapes, and you can vary the flavor depending on which beets or apples you choose, and what citrus you prefer.

Ingredients:
1 medium sized beet, peeled & grated
1 medium sized apple, peeled, cored & grated
2 carrots, peeled & grated
1-2 Tbsp lemon or lime juice
1-2 Tbsp safflower oil (or sunflower, or olive)
pinch salt

Grate roots and apple into a mixing bowl (discarding peels and seeds). Drizzle the lot with citrus juice and oil, and toss in pinch of salt. Toss everything and serve. Easy peasy and delicious!!!
