This Carrot Salad with Pistachios, Queso Fresco, and Shallot Dressing is a refreshing and healthy dish perfect for any occasion. The bright orange carrot ribbons are combined with creamy and tangy queso fresco and crunchy toasted pistachios. The shallot dressing adds a nice balance of acidity and sweetness, with a touch of Dijon mustard for a hint of spiciness. The Greek yogurt in the dressing gives it a nice creaminess without being too heavy. This salad is easy to prepare ahead of time and can be served as a side dish or a light lunch. It's a delicious and colorful way to add some veggies to your meal!
