TANGY CARROT-APPLE SALAD WITH CIDER VINAIGRETTE
Recipe from October 2010 Vegetarian Times. It says that the author, Matthew G. Kadey, RD, prefers sour to sweet and this recipe proves it. I did add a little extra Splenda, oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, but I leave that up to you! I did not serve mine over spinach, rather just in a small bowl as a meal starter. Lastly, I added some pepitas (pumpkin seeds without the shell), but again the addition of nuts is your choice.

SWEET AND TANGY CARROT SALAD
My mother-in-law used to buy a salad much like this at a local farmer's market. After searching many places for a similar recipe, I finally found one in a spiral-bound fund raising cookbook published by a local church. After tweaking it some, I finally got the taste I was looking for!
