Mackey’s Carrot Salad
I make this with yellow carrots plucked from my garden. It’s an easy and impressive side for any meal. Assemble your ingredients a day ahead and let the flavors marinate overnight. This tasty dish gets better with age!
1 pound carrots, shredded
1 medium apple, shredded
½ cup raisins
¼ cup cranberries
½ cup toasted pecans
¼ cup toasted sunflower seeds
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
¼ cup plain yogurt
¼ cup mayonnaise
½ teaspoon turmeric
Dash of cinnamon
Salt to taste
Toss and serve. (Yes, it’s really that easy!)
