Mediterranean Carrot Salad
Heart Smart p.80
Here's a new approach to this old favorite--one that is more tangy and less sweet. I think you'll agree it makes a wonderful accompaniment to hearty main dishes and barbecued meats.
2 1/2 cups shredded carrots
1 cup hot water
1/2 teaspoon dried minced garlic
2 tablespoons Kraft fat-free Italian Dressing
1/4 cup Kraft fat-free French Dressing
1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
In a medium saucepan, combine carrots, hot water, and garlic. Cook over medium heat for 6 to 8 minutes or until carrots are tender. Drain well. In a medium bowl, combine Italian dressing and French dressing. Add carrots and green pepper. Mix well to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Gently stir again just before serving.
