This vibrant beet and carrot salad combines shredded carrots and beets with a sweet-tangy dressing. Serve it solo, toss it with greens, or use it as a sandwich or wrap filler. For best results, grate fresh carrots and beets using a box grater’s large holes or a food processor’s shredding disk. Wear gloves when grating beets to prevent staining your hands.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
