Shaved Purple Carrot Salad
Marla Hingley
Ribbons of colorful carrots make this salad as beautiful as it is delicious.
Prep Time 30 mins
Total Time 30 mins
- 4 cups shaved carrots whatever color you like
- ½ cup red onion thinly sliced
Dressing
- ¼ cup fresh parsley finely chopped
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp honey or agave
- 1 tsp GF Dijon
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes
- Salt and pepper to taste
Use a mandolin or vegetable peeler to thinly slice the carrots (try to get the strips as long as possible). Place the ribbons in ice water and chill in fridge for 20 minutes – this will help curl the carrots and firm them up. Drain and gently pat dry.
Whisk together the dressing ingredients, then toss gently with the carrots and sliced onions.
