I am sharing my recipe for Copper Penny salad which is a crunchy carrot salad made from fresh carrot coins. It’s my husband’s favorite carrot salad.
Although it is a retro salad, it is something I have only started making quite recently. Even though I have been cooking for around fifty years now. How time flies in the kitchen!
This salad is perfect for keeping on hand in the fridge, since the more it marinates, the better it tastes.
You could add a few different veggies to this but don’t get crazy with it. As the vegetables will create different flavors from the melange. But I am thinking cauliflower florets would be an excellent add. Just maybe not cucumber. Keep that separate. Even if you use the same dressing.

That sounds delicious. I love the ingredients in the dressing.
I’m going to try this! It’s unusual and I’ve never heard of it. Maybe that’s because my mom didn’t care for carrots. Why I never knew.
That sauce sounds so flavorful and tasty with the carrots!
I love carrot salads! So nice to have a “new” one!
I’ve never heard of this but the sauce sounds amazing!
