About Shredded carrot salad

Shredded Carrot Salad is a refreshing, vibrant dish commonly found in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine, though variations exist globally. This simple yet flavorful salad typically features finely grated carrots tossed with olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt, often complemented by ingredients like parsley, garlic, raisins, or nuts for added texture and taste. Its health benefits stem from the carrots, rich in beta-carotene, vitamin A, fiber, and antioxidants, promoting good vision, immune function, and digestion. Olive oil adds heart-healthy fats, while lemon juice provides a dose of vitamin C. This salad is naturally low in calories, making it a nutritious choice, but additions like nuts or dried fruit can increase its calorie and sugar content, so portions should be considered. Perfect as a side dish or light snack, Shredded Carrot Salad is both nutritionally dense and deliciously versatile.
