Carrot salad is a refreshing and colorful dish typically made with shredded or julienned carrots, often combined with ingredients like lemon juice, olive oil, honey, raisins, or nuts for added sweetness and texture. Commonly found in various cuisines, it’s particularly popular in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and American cooking, with variations such as adding yogurt or spices like cumin for depth of flavor. Rich in vitamin A from carrots, this salad supports eye health and immune function. It’s also a good source of fiber, aiding digestion, and contains healthy fats if olive oil or nuts are included. While naturally low in calories, its nutritional value can vary depending on added sweeteners or oils. Carrot salad is a vibrant, versatile choice for those seeking a healthy side dish or light meal option.
