Flavorful carrot salad with feta, cucumber and grape tomatoes topped with homemade honey mustard dressing. Only 3 ingredients are required to make this honey mustard dressing. The flavor of feta … mustard … and honey is amazing. So strong and sweet taste. Something new to try.
I made carrot salad for lunch the other day and I wasn’t sure what dressing should I use. I had some dressings in my fridge but I wanted to make something from scratch. Before, I made a simple dressing with olive oil, cilantro and lemon juice for my Beans Salad. However, I needed a stronger flavor for my carrot salad, so I thought about honey and mustard combination.
Let me tell you feta with honey mustard dressing is so good. So full of new flavors that I’ve never had before. Totally different than I’m used to it. Just couple simple ingredients that you have in the fridge like honey, mustard and greek yogurt and homemade dressing can be made quickly from scratch. Very healthy addition to your everyday salad.
Carrot is the vegetable that I always have in the fridge. I always add it to my food. However mostly to my soups. I even add it to smoothies as well. Basically everywhere. Wait … soon I will have some carrot cookies to share.
Do you make your own dressing?
