Carrot & Raisin Salad

My favorite part of this refreshing side dish is the raisins. The longer you let this salad sit, the better it gets! Why? Because the raisins absorb all of the extra moisture, so they plump up and burst with juicy sweetness with every bite you take!


Carrot & Raisin Salad

Ingredients
5 cups grated carrots (about 2 lbs)
1/2 cup raisins
1 cup sour cream
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper

Directions
1. Combine all ingredients in medium bowl. Toss to coat evenly.
2. Refrigerate a few hours, or overnight, before serving.
