I made good use of some of the carrots from the massive Costco bag that we keep buying because it’s cheaper than buying the amount of carrots that we would actually generally choose to eat with this carrot salad adapted from the Vegetarian Times. In this case, adapted means that I couldn’t see why I shouldn’t double the amount of nuts & cheese! This simple salad makes a surprisingly flavorful lunch.I feel that the figs could be easily omitted, they mainly add a textural difference, the salad could easily stand on it’s own without them.
