Carrot Apple Salad

Ingredients:

6 medium carrots, peeled and shredded

1 large apple, grated or julienned

½ cup diced celery (optional)

¾ cup plain yogurt (or Greek yogurt)

1 tsp honey or maple syrup

2 tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp chopped parsley

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Prep the produce: Peel and shred the carrots and apple using a box grater or food processor. Dice the celery if using.

Mix the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, honey, lemon juice, parsley, salt, and pepper.

Combine: In a large bowl, toss the shredded carrots and apple (and celery, if using). Pour the dressing over and mix until well coated.

Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This allows the flavors to blend and the salad to firm up.

Serve: Garnish with extra parsley or a sprinkle of seeds/nuts if desired.
