A very tasty and healthy autumn salad! My husband and I often make this for dinner. I have another little secret: during pumpkin season, instead of carrots, I add pumpkin to this salad. I'm just taking a piece raw pumpkin and rub it on coarse grater. The salad tastes very similar to the one with carrots, but has more benefits. After all, pumpkin is an invaluable source of vitamins! This, by the way, is a good find for those mothers who cannot feed their children this healthy vegetable. Pumpkin, indeed, is not noticeable at all in this salad. You will only notice the substitution if you know that it is there. Only in the version with pumpkin I do not add sugar!
