SIDE NOTES:

~  I’m a big fan of carrot salads, and this is a good one!  It’s very easy to throw together, especially if you shoot the carrots through a food processor with a shredding blade.

~  If you don’t care for mint, substitute another fresh herb (personally, I’m not a big fan of mint, but happen to really like it in this salad).

~  If you’d prefer, you can swap the raisins for currants.
