CARROT AND GARLIC ATOMIC SALAD – SIMPLE SALAD WITH AWESOME TASTE
A SIMPLE SALAD WITH A SPECIAL TASTE
For me, eating salads is a moody thing. Sometimes I’m not too fond of salads, and sometimes I can’t get enough of salads.
Since eating the same salad over and over is boring, I have developed the atomic carrot and garlic salad.
It is a straightforward salad with very few ingredients but great taste that you will remember for a long time.
CARROT SALAD WITH A TWIST
The twist in this salad is that most of the seasoning is based on a massive amount of garlic, which gives the salad a fascinating garlic spiciness.
AND WHY IS IT CALLED ATOMIC SALAD?
The amount of garlic in the carrot and garlic salad will make your breath feel like radioactive material.
If you plan on going on a hot date after eating the atomic carrot and garlic salad, you might think again and eat our parsley salad or our beet salad instead.
DON'T PANIC!
Even though the name of the salad might discourage you from trying to make it. I promise you it is a great salad with a wonderful taste that you will love.
THERE IS A LOW CALORIES VERSION.
The seasoning of many salads is based on oils and different kinds of vinegar. These usually add a lot of calories to the salad.
One of the advantages of the atomic carrot and garlic salad is that it is mostly garlic.
The whole recipe has 1 tbsp of oil. You can easily give up or reduce the amount and turn the atomic carrot and garlic salad into a low-calorie salad.
This salad worked for me well when I was dieting.

The atomic carrot and garlic salad recipe can be easily upgraded by adding: fresh herbs like coriander, scallions, chive.
You can add treats like chopped candied pecan, chopped bleached almonds, dried cranberries, raisins, etc.
