Step-by-Step Instructions for Raw Carrot Salad
  1. Begin by washing and peeling 3-4 medium-sized fresh carrots. Using a grater or mandoline, shred the carrots into fine ribbons or thin shreds.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar with 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil. Whisk together until well combined.
  3. Place the shredded carrots into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the prepared dressing over the carrots and gently toss until thoroughly mixed.
