Ingredients
  

4 large carrots, grated

1/2 cup raw pistachios, roughly chopped

1 cup pomegranate seeds

1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: Feta cheese for garnish

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated carrots and pomegranate seeds.

    Add the chopped pistachios and finely chopped mint leaves to the bowl.

      In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey (or maple syrup), apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper until well combined.

        Pour the dressing over the carrot mixture and toss gently to combine all ingredients evenly.

          Allow the salad to sit for about 10 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

            Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary; you can add more salt, a touch of honey, or more mint.

              Serve in a large bowl or individual plates, and sprinkle with feta cheese if desired for an added creamy texture.
