Tasty Salad from a Few Carrots? Struggling at an Indian Buffet!

Yes, a tasty salad from a few carrots is possible. This carrot salad was inspired by a trip to an Indian buffet, truly the nemesis of the paleo-follower. The average Indian buffet has endless mounds of the classic Punjabi classics. Lots of legumes, yoghurt based curries, vegetable and meat masalas. We will deal with navigating this cornucopia of dishes in another post. In the meantime, enjoy this carrot salad as a tasty side dish or salad.
