Carrot & Cranberry Salad

"I've been trying all kinds of different recipes for carrot salad, and just haven't found the right one yet. So....I decided to stop dorking around, and create one myself. It's taken a few attempts ;) but I finally found the right combinations, at least for me. The dressing is not as sweet as some, allowing the flavours to show through more. I hope you enjoy it too. Note: Cooking time is chilling time."

  1. This was a really nice change from the shredded carrot salads that I normally eat. I used fat free mayo because I can't get miracle whip in the UK (for a short glorious period we could and then it vanished). I was fine with the level of lime juice and the more I ate the better all the tastes combined to make for a very nice side to lunch. Made for Oz/NZ tag.
     
  2. We both enjoyed this. I think it was tasty and colourful and so would make an excellent inclusion to a selection of salads. I couldn't buy celery seeds today, so I used some finely chopped celery leaves. I would also like some lime zest in it next time.
     
  3. Yummy! I used soy mayonnaise instead of miracle whip (it's not available in Australia) and I had to substitute the green onions to brown onions because I ran out. I also added a pinch of fresh parsley to give it some green colour (because it was missing the green onion). The flavours were every nice, the lime with the mayo and celery seed all worked out well.

  4. This is a nice change from the carrot -raisin salads. I would use a little more lime juice next time, or maybe some lime zest. Thanks for posting!
