Spring Carrot and Chickpea Coleslaw
By Emma Roche
This is called a 'Spring Coleslaw' since, unlike traditional coleslaw, it's made with a light non-creamy dressing. Red cabbage gives this salad a beautiful color, but if you can't get red cabbage, green cabbage can be substituted.

You can make this salad up to 24 hours ahead of time, and keep it in the fridge. If you are doing this, it’s best leave out the fresh dill, as it will start to brown. You can add it just before serving instead.
