Take a break from the romaine and give this delicious raw carrot salad from The Roasted Root a try. The tangy, ginger lime peanut dressing over thin strips of carrots makes this salad the perfect side with a grilled chicken breast or piece of fresh fish. If you don’t have a mandoline to cut the carrots, no problem! A simple spiralizer or a julienne peeler will do the trick.
Carrot Salad with Ginger Lime Peanut Sauce Ingredients For the carrot pasta: For the ginger-lime peanut sauce: Directions Combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and mix together until smooth and creamy and set aside while you julienne/spiralize the carrots. In a large serving bowl, gently toss the carrots and sauce together until evenly coated. Top with roasted cashews (or peanuts) and freshly chopped cilantro.

Sounds delicious and I have everything at home for this 😉
I tried this tonight for dinner. I made some changes to the recipe to fit my tastes and thought it was fantastic. 1 cup shredded papaya and carrot (from my local Thai grocery), 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, 8 cherry tomatoes halved, chopped peanuts sprinkled sparingly on top. For the dressing: 3 tbsp coconut milk, 3 tbsp creamy peanut butter, juice from 1 lime, 2 tsp minced garlic, 1 tbsp ginger paste, 1/2 tsp garlic chili sauce. I found it best to let the dressing sit for a few hours to meld the flavors. I found that the recipe makes way more dressing than you’d need for even four servings of carrots and/or papaya. Light and delicious for summer!
