Grated carrot salads have been around a long time, but this one is made with cooked sliced carrots, warm spices, and accents of feta cheese and olives. It makes a wonderful change of pace. Ingredients:
4 cups (1/2-inch-thick) sliced carrot |
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon paprika |
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper |
1 large garlic clove, minced |
1/4 cup (1 ounce) crumbled feta cheese |
2 tablespoons chopped pitted kalamata olives (about 6) |
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley |
4 cups torn spinach |
Directions:
1. Cook carrot in boiling water 4 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain and rinse with cold water.
2. Combine rind and next 8 ingredients (rind through garlic) in a large bowl. Add carrot, feta, olives and parsley; stir well to coat. Place spinach on each of 4 plates; top with carrot salad.
