Carrot Apple Salad with Vinaigrette
Since I always keep some carrots in the vegetable drawer and organic apples on the counter, I can put this salad together at the last minute for a refreshing burst of sweetness and tang.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Servings 8
Ingredients
- 4 cups carrot grated (about 4-6 carrots)
- 1-2 organic apples cored (but not peeled) and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1-2 cloves garlic pressed or minced (about 1/2 tablespoon)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1/2 lemon zested and juiced skip if you haven’t got the lemon
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
-
Place carrots and apples in a medium bowl.
-
In small bowl or jar, combine: white wine vinegar, lemon zest and juice, garlic, olive oil, and salt. Mix well.
-
Pour vinaigrette over carrots and apples. Toss until combined.
Recipe Notes
For a fancier variation: switch out the olive oil for walnut oil, and top the salad with 1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
