Crunchy Apple & Carrot Salad with Creamy Citrus Dressing


Ingredients
1 red apple, cut into matchstick pieces
1 green apple, cut into matchstick pieces
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cups matchstick carrots
cup yellow onion, finely diced
cup dried cranberries, sweetened
cup vanilla yogurt
cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sugar
teaspoon salt
teaspoon black pepper
1 cup canned mandarin segments, drained
Instructions
Prepare the Apples: Slice both the red and green apples into matchstick pieces. Place them in a bowl, pour the lemon juice over the apple pieces, and toss well to coat. Let the apples sit for about 5 minutes to absorb the lemon juice, which prevents browning.
Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the matchstick carrots, diced onion, and dried cranberries.
Add the Apples: After the apples have soaked in lemon juice, add them to the mixing bowl with the other ingredients.
Make the Dressing: Add the vanilla yogurt, mayonnaise, sugar, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir everything together until well combined and evenly coated.
Finish with Mandarins: Gently fold in the drained mandarin segments to avoid breaking them up too much.
Chill: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving to let the flavors meld.
