Pioneer Woman Carrot Salad

Pioneer Woman Carrot Salad is one of the best raw carrot salad recipes out there. This shredded carrot salad is made with shredded carrots, raisins, shredded red apples, and toasted pecans, and is dressed with a combination of mayonnaise, coarse-grain Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and honey.

If possible, make this simple French Carrot Salad ahead of time and leave it to chill in the fridge. This lets the carrots soak up the dressing for a better taste.

Pioneer Woman Carrot Salad Ingredients

• 1 pound carrots, peeled
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 3 tbsp mayonnaise
• 3 tbsp coarse-grain Dijon mustard
• 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 3 tbsp honey
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
• 1 red apple, shredded
• 1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped

How To Grate Carrots For Salad 

Shred the carrot in a food processor for quick and even results, or use a manual box grater for a more hands-on approach; just make sure to wash and peel the carrots beforehand for a fresh and clean taste.

If you’d like a different style, cut them into matchsticks, as suggested by the Pioneer Woman in the original recipe.

How To Make Pioneer Woman Carrot Salad

1. Prepare the Dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
2. Assemble the Salad: Add the grated carrots, apple, toasted pecans, raisins, and chopped parsley to the bowl with the dressing.
3. Toss and Serve: Mix everything together until all ingredients are well coated with the dressing. You can serve the salad immediately or refrigerate it for up to a day before serving.

What To Serve With Carrot Salad

Serve Carrot Salad cold as a side dish with grilled lemon herb chicken, roasted rosemary potatoes, or a garlic butter steak. Carrot Salad pairs exceptionally well with turkey and cranberry sandwiches, creamy mushroom pasta, or tangy barbecued pork ribs.

How Long Does Carrot Salad Last In The Fridge 

Carrot Salad can last in the fridge for about 3-4 days. Simply ensure it’s stored in an airtight container, then place it in the fridge.

Can You Freeze Carrot Salad 

No, you shouldn’t freeze Carrot Salad. Freezing can make the carrots and apples soft, and the dressing might not look or taste right after thawing.
