Wheat Free Carrot Raisin Slaw
This bright, crunchy slaw is the kind of side dish that earns compliments without requiring much effort at all. Freshly grated carrots get tossed with plump raisins and a zippy apple cider vinegar dressing that's balanced with honey, olive oil, fresh ginger, and a whisper of Ceylon cinnamon — it's sweet, tangy, and just a little warm-spiced in the best way. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of wheat, so there's no swapping, substituting, or label-squinting required. A short rest lets the carrots soften just slightly and the raisins drink up the dressing, which means the flavor only gets better as it sits. It works beautifully as a cookout side, a weeknight salad, or a colorful addition to a grain bowl or wrap. A scatter of fresh parsley at the end adds a pop of color and a clean, herby finish that ties everything together.
