Technicolor Carrot Salad

Do not let the simplicity of this recipe fool you- it is outrageously good!
This is a modification of another recipe. My whole family cobbled it up! I'm calling it Technicolor Carrot Salad, because it is super fresh (and "bright" tasting)...try it and you'll see what I mean.

1 lb bag of Baby Carrots
1 Lemon
1 Lime
Pure Maple Syrup





  1. Shred carrots finely, put in bowl. (I use the food processor)


  2. Squeeze the juice out of both the lemon and the lime all over the carrots and mix well. (Do not be tempted to use bottled lemon/lime juice for this - it won't be the same!)


  3. Grate the peel of the lemon right into the bowl. (When zesting lemon rind, be sure not to grate into the white part - the pith - that is the bitter part.) Mix well.


  4. Pour a thin drizzle all over the carrots. Mix well and taste. If more is needed, repeat.


Serves 6 -10 as a side



Enjoy!
