This is a play on the classic Moroccan carrot salad. Instead of shredding, we shave the carrots into thin ribbons, then wilt them in the microwave before dressing them with olive oil, lemon and honey. When shopping, look for large carrots, as they’re easier to shave than small and slender ones. The sweet-savory flavor profile of the salad works especially well with roasted or grilled lamb or chicken.

Company worthy!
Excellent salad! I added 1/2 C arugula for good measure. Also, used half green and half black olives, to good effect, and did not chop them - I missed that part, but liked it better that way.
