   Toss the slaw together.

   1.Add the grated carrot and apple to the bowl with the dressing.

   2.Add the chopped parsley.

   3.Toss everything gently until the strands are evenly coated.

   rest · ~5 min

   Let the slaw rest briefly.

   Let the slaw sit for 5 minutes at room temperature so the flavors meld and the apple releases a bit of its juice into the dressing.

   TIPDon't let it sit longer than 15 minutes before serving, or the apple will start to brown and soften too much.

   Give a final toss and serve.

   Toss the slaw one more time to redistribute the dressing that has settled at the bottom, then transfer to a serving bowl.
