Lemony Carrot Salad with Dill

:  Fall 2004, EatingWell Serves Two, The EatingWell Diabetes Cookbook (2005)

Your rating: None Average: 4.4 (14 votes)

Carrots are great keepers, so this makes a handy, refreshing salad when you haven't had time to shop for fresh greens. It brightens up a tuna sandwich too.


READER'S COMMENT:
"This salad is so simple and delicious, not to mention affordable. I make the whole thing in my Cuisinart, from shredding the carrots, to chopping the dill and scallions, to mixing the vinaigrette. Can't wait to try it on some tuna melts...
