  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups shredded carrots (about 4 large carrots)
  • ½ cup raisins
  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts or sunflower seeds (optional, for crunch)
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise for a classic taste)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for warmth)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Carrots

Wash, peel, and shred the carrots using a box grater or food processor. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2: Add the Raisins and Nuts

Add the raisins and chopped walnuts (if using) to the bowl with the shredded carrots.

Step 3: Make the Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), honey, lemon juice, cinnamon (if using), and salt until smooth and well combined.

Step 4: Mix Everything Together

Pour the dressing over the carrot mixture and toss everything together until well coated.

Step 5: Chill and Serve

For the best flavor, let the salad sit in the fridge for 15-20 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled and enjoy!
