I've made carrot salad many times before and have experimented with several alternatives to mayonnaise. This recipe by far, exceeds all previous carrot salads and is worthy of posting on my blog. I hope you enjoy making this and if you're lucky you have an automatic shredder and don't have to go through the pain of grating by hand (I have battle wounds from the encounter between my thumb and the grater). The extra effort is definitely worth it for this recipe!!!!
Carrot Salad with Greek Yogurt
4-5 cups Finely shredded carrots
(thick pre-shredded carrots aren’t a good substitute because they are dry and bland)
(fresh, finely shredded carrots taste sweeter)
1/2 mango cubed
6 oz Greek Yogurt (pineapple flavor)
½ can of pineapple (tidbits, crushed or chunks) (with juice)
½ cup shredded coconut
¼ cup dried cranberries
¼ cup raisin
Mix together in a large bowl. You can eat it immediately, but it tastes better after sitting overnight in the fridge.
