This Moroccan Carrot Salad with Millet is colorful, fresh and vibrant and I think your sophisticated palate is going to love it! Millet is a world-grown whole grain and in this recipe I have added roasted carrots and red onion slices, almond slices, pomegranate seeds, minced parsley and cilantro tossed together with Moroccan spice blend such as Ras El Hanout and olive oil. The perfect side salad to enjoy with one of our stuffed chicken breast recipes.

If you wanna spice up your carrot salad I'd recommend adding bit of paprika powder, not too much but maybe a tsp, it taste amazing.

I prefer the deviled egg salad to this, tasty but if you want something more filling i'd recommend the deviled egg or tuna with garlic toast :)

Made it a day before and saved the leftovers, turns out this is even better when cold, 5 stars from me.
