This super healthy Copper Penny Carrot Salad, loaded with vegetables, is the perfect balance of sweet and sour. Copper penny carrots is a traditional salad from South Africa. It works perfectly as a warm side dish, or as a chilled salad. In fact, refrigerating it is what brings out all the flavor.

The star of the show is the carrot, but onion, pepper and celery add lots of extra taste and everything is brought together by the rich tomato soup. This copper pennies recipe is very simple to put together and is a great option to bring along to a picnic or pot luck.
