Carrot-Pineapple Toss

Submitted by Laura2of7

"A little different from others I've seen here as there's no added sugar. I found this in "The Back of the Box Gourmet", by Michael McLaughlin. It's easy to throw together; easier if you use a food processor. I love the sweet flavor and the crunch. Try it with home-made mayonnaise and/or golden raisins."

I followed the recipe and it's too much mayonnaise. I'll have to add more shredded carrots. But the taste is good. I should have tried with 1/4 cup mayonnaise and then taste it. Thanks Laura :) Made for PAC Spring 2013
