PINEAPPLE & COCONUT CARROT SALAD
I enjoyed a salad like this at a tropical-inspired restaurant. I tried to get the staff to give me the recipe but had no luck. So I went home and created my own! I will sometimes drain a can of mandarin orange slices and toss those in as well. -Shirley Turpin, Williams, Minnesota

OLD-FASHIONED CARROT SALAD
Steps:
- Peel the carrots and grate them in a food processor fitted with the large grating attachment. If you lay the carrots on their sides in the feed tube, you will have nice long grated strands.

PERFECT SUMMER FRUIT SALAD
The perfect fruit salad for a backyard bbq or any occasion. There are never leftovers! This is one of my favorite fruit salad recipes, as I think the sauce really makes it. This salad is tastier the longer you can let it soak in its juices. I prefer 3 to 4 hours in the refrigerator before I serve it. Enjoy.
