MOROCCAN CARROT SALAD WITH DATES AND YOGURT (VEGAN-FRIENDLY)
I'm not sure if this recipe is more inspired by Moroccan cuisine or close to a traditional recipe...it doesn't matter to me. From a local CSA flyer but the original recipe source is unknown. You can easily make this recipe vegan by omitting the plain yogurt and substituting another sweetener for the honey. A link to ras el hanout recipes on this site: http://www.food.com/recipe-finder/condiments-etc/ras-el-hanout. I use this one: Recipe #205185.

Steps:
- Grate the carrots and place them in a bowl. Stir in most of the almonds (save a few for garnish) and the dates.
- Whisk together the dressing. Taste and correct seasonings, add more lemon juice or yogurt if necessary. Pour the dressing over the carrot mixture; stir.
- Serve immediately or cover and chill.
- Garnish with a few sliced almonds and fresh mint leaves before serving.
- If desired, the carrot salad can be served over a bed of lettuce. I served it over butter lettuce.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of yogurt, but I really enjoyed this salad. The yogurt adds a nice creaminess without being too overpowering.

[email protected]I had some trouble finding preserved lemons, so I used regular lemon zest instead. It still turned out great!

[email protected]This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less dates or adding some lemon juice to balance out the sweetness.
