"Hoping to convince my son to eat his carrots, I came up with this refreshing salad," writes Louise Ross of Santa Rosa, California. "The big plus is that everyone in our family loves it." Her colorful spin-off on a traditional carrot and raisin salad tosses dried cranberries, pineapple and mango into the mix, along with a light yogurt and mayonnaise dressing.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover carrots. I always have a few carrots floating around in my fridge, and this is a great way to use them up.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, so I omitted it from the recipe. The salad was still delicious.
