Description

This vibrant carrot raisin salad with pineapple and orange ribbon is a sweet, tart, and crunchy side dish, perfect for quick, healthy family meals. It offers a refreshing citrus scent and brightens any table.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450 g) fresh carrots, peeled and finely shredded
  • 0.5 cup (75 g) golden raisins
  • 0.5 cup (120 g) crushed pineapple, well-drained
  • 1 medium fresh orange, zest and juice
  • 0.5 cup (120 ml) mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • 2–3 tbsp (25–38 g) granulated sugar or honey
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 0.25 cup (30 g) chopped pecans or walnuts, optional

Instructions

  1. Prep Ingredients: Finely shred the fresh carrots using a box grater or food processor. Zest the orange carefully, then juice it, reserving 1 tablespoon for the dressing. Thoroughly drain the crushed pineapple, pressing out any excess liquid.
  2. Whisk Dressing: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), sugar (or honey), orange zest, and 1 tablespoon of fresh orange juice. Whisk until smooth and fully combined, then stir in a pinch of salt.
  3. Combine and Mix: Add the shredded carrots, golden raisins, and well-drained crushed pineapple to the dressing bowl. Stir gently but thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly coated in the creamy dressing.
  4. Chill Salad: Cover the bowl tightly and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This chilling time allows the flavors to truly meld and deepen. If the salad appears too dry after chilling, splash in 1-2 teaspoons more orange juice or a touch of milk to reach your desired consistency.

Notes

For a lighter, higher-protein option, swap mayonnaise with plain Greek yogurt. Ensure crushed pineapple is thoroughly drained to prevent a watery salad. Salad tastes best when cold and flavors have melded. Adjust sweetness and tang after chilling if needed. Store refrigerated for up to 3 days.
