Great Carrot Salad Recipe!

Carrot Salad Shredded carrots Chopped celery Roasted pecan pieces (in microwave 5 min. stirring each minute) Raisins Small amount of mayo Splenda or Sweet n Low Mix together.  YUMMY! It's also good to munch on while watching TV.

Sounds yummy, thanks!

YUM! Minus the mayo, but there's plenty I could swap for it (not a calorie thing, just don't like mayo). Shaved fennel also goes REAL good in carrot salad...

It would be just as good WITHOUT the mayo, but dh said it was a bit dry. What is fennel?

Fennel is a veggie you might know as anise...here.

They use to serve this when I was in elementary school back in 1923. It was . They would put apples in it too. I see this on salad bars alot. Is there a formal name for it?

Now, now, Bud.....in 1923 they didn't have carrots!   LOL   Anyway, when you're a kid, veggies are yuk!  But now that you're an adult, they taste better.   Try it.....you'll like it!  But do NOT put apples in it.  That's carrying it a bit too far.

BTW, the only name for it that I know is Carrot Salad.      (??????)

I'm not too fond of carrots... they are ok when they have been baked to the point where they have carmelized and are dry and chewy... That's it.. It sounds too far out of my comfort zone.. I'll let you all do the enjoying for me. :) -Bud

Joining bud at the no carrots table.... LOL 

Bud - may I say that you are quite handsome?  Don't tell Shari I said so, she'll just get jealous, since I havent told her she was hot in over 24 hours...  LOL

Thank u, and I won't tell.
