Ingredients
  

4 large carrots, peeled and grated

1/2 cup pistachios, shelled and roughly chopped

1 cup pomegranate seeds (from about 1 large pomegranate)

1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated carrots, chopped pistachios, and pomegranate seeds.

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, honey (or maple syrup), and cinnamon until well blended.

      Pour the dressing over the carrot mixture and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.

        Add the chopped mint leaves and mix again, being careful not to crush the pomegranate seeds.

          Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the flavors as desired.

            Allow the salad to sit for about 10 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
