Description

This colorful carrot salad with juicy oranges is a real eye-catcher and tastes simply fantastic! I love using the purple carrots because they give the salad a special touch. The creamy sesame-lime dressing perfectly complements the dish. The salad is quick to prepare and is great as a light meal or side dish. Especially in winter, when oranges are in season, it is an absolute must. It is vegetarian and can easily be made vegan by replacing the honey with agave syrup. A great recipe that is always well received!
