Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups shredded carrots
  • 1 cup raisins
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • If your carrots aren’t already shredded, start by peeling and shredding them using a box grater or a food processor for speed.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded carrots and raisins.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, honey, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
  • Pour the dressing over the carrot and raisin mixture, stirring gently to ensure everything is well-coated.
  • Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.

Notes

This salad is highly versatile: make it vegan with coconut yogurt and maple syrup, or reduce carb content by minimizing raisins. Store dressing separately to keep carrots fresh.
