Salad Slaw

This recipe is so simple and delicious I had to share! I’ve been making this salad like slaw for a couple weeks now and it’s become a staple. You can mix and match ingredients however you’d like, but my go-to ingredients are: cucumbers, endive, radicchio, radishes, and green olives. Sometimes I add in julienned carrots or fennel and the taste is still great. Play with this recipe and add whatever you have on hand!
