arksnay I'm going to start putting recipes I make up here, because I never write anything down and create these amazing things I can't replicate. So:
winter vegetable slaw
Coarsely grate and throw into a bowl:
Three tart apples, cored but with the skin on (toss with vinegar or lemon juice before adding other stuff)
Half of a small green cabbage
One small fennel bulb
One gigantic beet (peel it first)
One very small red onion
Peel and seed either half of a normal butternut squash or a whole tiny one. Coarsely grate that and spread it out on a cookie sheet or something. Sprinkle it with salt to draw out the bitterness. wait several minutes then pat dry with paper towels and throw in with everything else.
Mix this all up. Marvel at how beautiful and colorful and vitaminy it is and wonder whether your hands will still be pink tomorrow.
Press handfuls of this between paper towels if it's way too juicy, which mine was.
Mix a little garlic vinegar (I have this great one that's cider vinegar with garlic and brown sugar), lots of cracked pepper, a bit of lemon juice and a little honey dissolved in hot water. Toss all this stuff with it.
Taste it, shout hooray!, and adjust any flavors that need adjusting.
