Beet Slaw

1 fresh raw beet
1 fresh raw zuchinni
1 fresh raw yellow squash
2 fresh raw carrots
1 raw onion

1/2cup apple raw cider vinegar
1 TBS blackstrap molasis
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
2-3 cloves garlic finely chopped
sea salt to taste

Clean the veggies thoroughly, but don't  peel them.
I like to take the veggies and run them over a grater on the larger holes to create long
thin strips of veggies.  You can chop them if you prefer.
Mix the vinegar, molasis, cayenne, garlic and sea salt together in a separate bowl.  Mix
the veggies in a large bowl then add the vinegar mixture.
