Layered carrot salad
Description
Vegetable salads are healthy any time of year. Of course, ingredients may vary depending on the season. I chose a combination of carrots and zucchini, as regular cucumbers or zucchini have become boring. A light sauce will add a pleasant tanginess to the salad and accentuate the sweetness of the carrots. To prepare a layered carrot salad, the most important thing is to have a good vegetable slicer, since the vegetables need to be sliced thinly. Otherwise, the recipe for this layered carrot salad is quite simple—just try it yourself.
