Carrot Ribbon Salad With Ginger Parsley And Dates Recipes

CARROT RIBBON SALAD WITH GINGER, PARSLEY, AND DATES

Steps:

• Using a vegetable peeler, shave the carrots into long, thin slices, watching out for your fingers. Soak, along with any remaining carrot nubs, in a bowl of ice water until the slices curl, about 15 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• In a large salad bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, ginger, honey, and ⅛ teaspoon salt. Add the carrots, parsley, half the almonds, and half the dates and toss to combine. Adjust the salt to taste.
• Top the salad with the remaining almonds and dates and serve.

CARROT, DATE AND FETA SALAD

• Whisk together the cilantro, olive oil, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the lime juice in a medium bowl. Add the carrots along with the feta cheese, almonds and dates, and toss until evenly combined. Serve immediately, or let the salad marinate a bit before serving.
