Apple and Carrot Salad
Makes 8 Servings
65 cals / 1g fat / 15g carbs / 1g protein
2 granny smith apples
2 sweet apples (gala, honey crisp, fuji, etc...)
2 cups shredded carrots (save yourself time and buy the bag of pre-shredded)
Juice from 1 lemon
2 tsp olive oil
1 bunch chives (about 1/4 cup minced)
1 TB sugar
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1. In a large bowl, mix the lemon juice with the olive oil, sugar, salt, and pepper. Mince the chives (about 1/4 cup worth) and stir into the dressing.
2. Cut the apples into matchsticks and toss the match sticks with the dressing (I slice off 4 sides of the apple to slightly square it and throw out those slices...they will be mostly peel. Then I thinly slice each of the 4 sides of the apple until I get to the core. Then slice those into matchstick shapes). Add the carrot shreds and toss all together to mix well.
