Ingredients

  • 6 medium size organic carrots (yielding about 4 cups of shredded carrots)
  • 5 tbsp avocado oil mayonnaise (use a vegan alternative, if vegan)
  • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder/granules (optional)
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (skip if vegan)
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill and more for garnish
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Shred raw carrots in a food processor or using a box grater or a mandolin.
  • Transfer to a salad bowl.
  • Add the mayonnaise, olive oil, garlic powder and mix all four ingredients.
  • Next add lemon juice, feta cheese crumbles and fresh chopped dill. Mix gently.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with remaining dill and serve.

Notes

  • Avoid over-mixing this salad so it does not become mushy. 
  • I do not recommend scaling down on the mayo and olive oil if you are looking to enjoy a super creamy salad.
