carrot salad with pesto dressing

carrot salad with pesto dressing 

This is a great prepare ahead salad that will be happy to hang out
both in and out of the fridge.
Feel free to use a commercial pesto, if you aren’t in the mood to
make your own. But I highly recommend trying the dairy free Sicilian
nut pesto below.
serves 2
6 tablespoons pesto
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 large carrots, scrubbed
large handful roasted cashews
Combine pesto, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons extra virgin
olive oil in a large mixing bowl.
Using a vegetable peeler, shave carrots into wide ribbons.
Toss carrot ribbons in the dressing. Taste, season & serve
with cashews sprinkled over.
