In this sweet-and-tangy slaw, raw carrots develop flavor in a lemony dressing, and delicate Marcona almonds add a salty crunch. If you can’t find Marconas, which are imported from Spain, use regular sliced almonds instead.

Love this salad!This is such a tasty salad. Very light and refreshing and quick to put together. The marcona almonds really make it special. We enjoy a fresh side dish in addition to the warm entree/sides during dinner. They compliment each other.

Refreshing side dish with great crunch!This is so delicious goes with almost anything. I first made it with grilled chicken & burgers and then with a roasted pork dish. Everyone who tries it asks for the recipe, very easy to make .
