The flavors of this carrot salad are bold, punchy, and bright, thanks to fresh garlic and a few other simple ingredients. It's so simple but somehow manages to be both super healthy and completely crave-worthy. I love making a big batch and tossing it into wraps, grain bowls, or as a refreshing salad with a warm meal. It pairs well with brunch too, and so easy to put together (no knife is needed!) that we often make it when we travel too.
Ingredients
1 bag of shredded carrots
2 tbsps vegan mayonaise (for a soy-free recipe, ensure you're using a soy-free mayo)
1 tbsp lemon juice
3-4 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 tsp granulated sugar
1 tsp salt
Instructions
Place the shredded carrots in a mixing bowl (or directly in a serving bowl).
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Add the vegan mayonnaise, garlic and lemon juice, and mix well until combined to a consistent result.
Serve with your favorite bread & spread, as a brunch salad or as a refreshing side for any meal, at home or on the go!
Notes
If preferred or if that's what your pantry allows, substitute the bag of shredded carrots with 3 freshly peeled carrots, and shred it to medium pieces (not too thin but also not thick so it doesn't look like small carrot sticks) using a manual grater or a food processor with the grating attachment.
