  • 1 tbsp fresh mint sliced
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme finely chopped
  • 4 Carrots grated
  • 1 red capsicum thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cos lettuce, large shredded, (romaine lettuce)
  • 4 button mushrooms thinly sliced

  • Whisk in aioli, garlic, mint and thyme.

Notes

I use the Cos lettuce in place of cabbage in my coleslaw as my daughter can't eat raw cabbage due to her thyroid condition, but if it's not an issue for you, you can use either cos or cabbage. The Cos makes for a lighter, slightly sweeter and less bitter slaw, which my kids prefer.
