sunshine carrot salad
This is an all-raw salad, that is rich in nutrients and extremely healthy for you. This recipe comes from a recipe book of mine called "Recipes for Life page 154" it is vegetarian and uses mostly all "live" or "living" ingredients -- as they would say. This is my most favorite of the salads. My husband & I took an all weekend intensive courses with "Hallelujah Acres" learning how to eat with raw foods because I had become extremely ill after one of my mission trips. We changed our diets for over a year to eating extremely healthy and mostly raw with a little chicken here and there. I need to incorporate a little more raw foods back into our diet, so I thought I would share this recipe with you all. I will try and post a few more from the recipe book. I do hope you enjoy this salad.
