Coconut Carrot Salad

This is a delicious carrot salad with coconut and crushed pineapple for added sweetness.

It's a wonderful addition to a buffet table any time of the year and makes a perfect and easy summer salad recipe.

Just mix it, refrigerate it and take it out when you need it.

A great do ahead salad that makes life that little bit easier on the cook.

That's always my goal!
