Servings: 4 people
Calories: 251kcal
Ingredients
- 4 cups shredded carrots
- 2/3 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
- ½ cup raisins
- 1 medium shallot finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons tahini
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- Water if needed
- Kosher or fine sea salt to taste
Instructions
- Combine the carrots, parsley, raisins, and shallot in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, honey, and garlic powder. The dressing should be creamy yet pourable. If it seems too thick, add a little water.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Season to taste with salt. Serve right away or refrigerate in an airtight container until ready to serve.
Notes
If you would prefer a dressing with milder flavor, use unsweetened cashew butter instead of tahini.
