Easy Sesame Carrot Salad Recipe – Gluten Free, Vegan, Paleo, Allergy Friendly and Frugal

I almost feel like this is too simple and silly to be a recipe, but it’s yummy and good, and so what if it’s ridiculously easy? I made this side dish kind of accidentally, because I was making poke bowls (another post on that soon) and wanted to put grated carrots in it, but didn’t want to leave them plain. I thought about what flavors would go well together and did it, and it came out delicious enough to want to eat it plain. I thought at first that since it was so simple I should probably add some extra stuff to it like garlic, but while it’s fine with garlic, I think it’s even better without.
