Carrot slaw is great because it holds up well and doesn't get soggy–this one sounds really good! BTW love your old-timey measuring cups!
This sounds healthy and delicious plus the bright orange makes it really appealing!

I absolutely love all of the flavors in this salad, but I also LOVE those measuring cups! So charming! Are they vintage?
Yes, they are vintage! My grandmother had some like this, and I love them :)
So jealous, they are SO COOL! I'd love to track some of my own down someday.
Look on Etsy.com I’ve seen lots of them on there :)
Give me honey mustard dressing and I'm a happy camper. I would go straight to this salad in a buffet Constance!
Healthy and delicious. Very nice!
Dijon and carrots are a natural pairing, so good!
Oh yeah, overnight and this is gonna be gooooood!

We love all kinds of slaw! I cannot wait to try this carrot version!
Mustard honey atop carrots whether raw or cooked is definitely a winning touchdown combo, Constance! P.s. I so admire your meticulous camera work and perfect pictures.
I think my mom would eat the whole bowl. It's one of her favorites and I'm going to make this for her for the next time she comes over for dinner.
