- 2 tablespoons olive oil or grapeseed oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon or grainy mustard
- 2 tablespoons lime juice or 1 tablespoon white balsamic reduction

Methodology
In a large acid-proof bowl, whisk together the oil lemon juice or balsamic, mustard and seasonings. Add carrots and toss to coat. Refrigerate until chilled before serving.
This dish is a great picnic item and works well on the buffet table as well. Children love it at home and in their lunch because its not creamy like coleslaw, and older adults love it because it reminds them of their youth.
Serve a spoonful of carrot salad over cold grilled or poached salmon slices, on a bed of baby lettuces. The perfect summer or spa meal. Carrot salad keeps well in the refrigerator for several days.
