In the heart of the Midwest, where the seasons paint our landscapes with vibrant hues, this Apple Cranberry Carrot Salad is a cherished reminder of autumn's bounty. This recipe is a nod to the days when my grandmother would gather us around her kitchen table, the air filled with the sweet scent of apples and the earthy crunch of freshly picked carrots. It's a simple yet delightful dish that brings together the crispness of apples and the subtle sweetness of carrots, all tied together with the tartness of cranberries. Perfect for those who wish to savor the flavors of fall in a refreshing, wholesome salad.
This salad pairs beautifully with roasted chicken or turkey, making it an ideal side for a cozy family dinner. It also complements a hearty pork roast or can be served alongside a simple grilled cheese sandwich for a lighter lunch.
