Shaved Carrot Salad
Time: 15 mins Serves: 2
-6 small, or 4 medium, carrots (I used a blend of orange, white, and red carrots)
-4 radishes, thinly sliced
-1/3 cup roasted sunflower seeds
-grated or shaved parmesan (whatever you have on hand is great)
-2 tbls fresh parsley, roughly chopped
-salt & pepper
-4tbls herb olive oil
-1/2 lemon, juiced
Using either a mandolin or a vegetable peeler, thinly slice the carrots into long shavings. Repeat this process with the radishes.
In a medium bowl, combine the herb olive oil, lemon juice, and a generous sprinkling of salt & pepper. Mix well.
Toss the carrots in the vinaigrette.
To assemble the salads, mound the carrot shavings in the center of a plate, sprinkle with radishes, sunflower seeds, Parmesan, parsley, and another sprinkling of salt & pepper. Drizzle the top of the salad with the remainder of the vinaigrette.
Take a step back to admire your beautiful salad… and ENJOY! J
Feel free to add other shaved veggies to your salad as well! Good options for this would be asparagus, zucchini, cucumber, bell pepper, or red onion. The possibilities are endless!
