Ingredients

1/3 cup plain nonfat yogurt
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
1 pound carrots, peeled and trimmed
1 Granny Smith apple, cored
2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh mint leaves
Salt

Directions

Fold a full sheet of paper towel into quarters and place it in a small bowl. Spoon the yogurt on top of the paper towel. Place it in the refrigerator for 20 minutes so the yogurt can drain and thicken.

In a small bowl whisk together the thickened yogurt and the mayonnaise, until smooth. Whisk in the lemon juice, vinegar, and honey.

Grate first the carrots and then the apples in a food processor. Transfer them to a large bowl and stir to combine. Pour the dressing over the carrot mixture and toss. Add the mint and season with salt.

Serve chilled.

Soooo Good!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this for my parents who are adopting a more healthy lifestyle because of health issues. I first made the salad after... my mom was recovering from back surgery and they loved it and kept begging for me to make it again! Happily, my mom is on the mend and she's making it regularly for the two of them to enjoy. Oh, and for every batch I made for them, I made one for myself and I thought it was great too, even a couple of days later!Read more

Not as good as it sounded
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

Followed the recipe exactly, but after chilling, the mint permeated the whole salad. Before it chilled, the vinegar was... overpowering. If I try it again, I will definately make adjustments.Read more

Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My boyfriend and I absolutely LOVED this recipe - it's the perfect new dish for our healthy lifestyles. It was so easy,... inexpensive, filling, fresh, and absolutely delicious!! I even had the leftovers for lunch the next day, and it was just as yummy as it was the first night. I was getting bored with cooking until Ellie came along :-) Thanks SO much Ellie I'm looking so forward to watching your show every week, and to making your recipes every night!Read more
