Sweet Salad Recipe
Healthy food is not always tasty and is understood even adults, and children feel intuitively.

Everything is simple – salad from carrots in a sweet version.

- carrots – 5 pcs.;
- dried cranberries – ½ cup;
- lemon – 1 pc.;
- orange – ½ pcs.;
- liquid natural honey – 1 tablespoon;
- coriander seeds to taste.

Wash carrots, peel and rub on a coarse grater, but you can grind and in the combine. Cranberries finely chopped and mixed together with carrots. Lemon juice is squeezed into a separate small bowl and orange, and coriander seeds and liquid honey are added. Everything thoroughly mixed and served on the table.
Cooking options: this salad can be not only sweet, but also more piquant, with the addition of a more saturated dressing and garlic. You can also add a little garlic to the sweet version, and use a little frozen red instead of cranberries currants.
