Beetroot and Mint Coleslaw

Vibrant colours for vibrant health!

One of the challenges involved in getting a weekly veg box is figuring out tasty ways of enjoying vegetables you wouldnt usually choose to eat.  

I'm no great fan of cabbage cooked, but I dont mind coleslaw.  

I was out of carrots so thought I'd experiment with beetroot which has a similar texture and sweetness to carrot. 

 The mint in our garden has gone nuts so I thought adding a bit of that would give a nice counter to the sweetness. 

Mr Duncan said this was the best coleslaw I've made yet.
