- 2 cups shredded carrots
- 2 bananas, sliced
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/3 cup yogurt or sour cream
First shred your carrots. You can peel
them before hand or not as you see fit. Then
shred them on a cheese grater by hand, or in
the food processor if you have electricity.
Peel the bananas and slice them into 1/2
inch rounds. Place them in a bowl and
sprinkle them with the lemon juice. This
will keep them from turning brown, and also
make the salad a little tangier. Add the
shredded carrots, sugar and yogurt or sour
cream. I prefer it made with yogurt, but
some folks swear it isn't right unless you
use sour cream, so make your own choice
according to the ingredients you keep on
hand. Stir it all up gently and chill. Stir
before serving. This salad is a real kid
pleaser, it is sweet, and orange, and smiles
at them from their plate. You can serve it
on lettuce leaves to be fancy, or just put a
glob on the plate next to the fried tofu.
Serves 6.
