If made to recipe and split into 4 servings, this recipe is 2 PointsPlus. 

As you can see, we defined "shredded" rather liberally since it was faster to put the veggies in the mini food processor than shred them by hand (and we had a bit of a "shredder malfunction" with the beet. Oops!). It may look funny, but it tasted great. Maybe it was because of our shredding technique, but I feel like this would've been a really fantastic slaw. Get rid of the bed of lettuce, double the amount of veggies, and pour the dressing over. Or just put the dressing on some broccoli slaw. Mmmmmmm.


Shortcuts:
None

Substitutions 
(may affect PointsPlus value):
None
