I made this recipe this afternoon. I was a little intrigued by the cinnamon, it is not one of the normal carrot salad ingredients that I am use to, but the flavors work nicely together. I added craisins instead of raisins, and glazed walnuts instead of almonds, because that's what I had on hand. I also ended up adding a smidge more honey to sweeten it up just a bit more. Thank you for the unique recipe.
