- 2 carrots shredded
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 garlic clove minced
- ¼ teaspoon salt

Use a shredder to shred cabbage or slice thinly with a knife. Soak in water, rinse and dry.
Shred the carrots.
In a jar or small bowl mix the olive oil, lemon juice and minced garlic.
Place cabbage and carrots in a large bowl, pour the dressing and add the salt. Toss the salad (it will reduce in volume).
Add the olives on top.
