This colorful traditional salad is one of my mother-in-law's favorites. It's fun to eat because of its crunchy texture, and the raisins give a slightly sweet flavor. Plus, it's easy to prepare. —Denise Baumert, Dalhart, Texas

Such a fresh good salad! Great way to eat raw carrots. I took a previous reviewers advice and added 1/2 Tbsp peanut butter with the mayo, and I used half Miracle Whip half mayo. The peanut butter added such a subtle interesting flavour to it all and you don't need as much sugar!

My mom has made this for years. Called it Navy Salad. (Dad had it in the Navy??) Anyway, she used just Miracle Whip with the carrots and raisins. Would recommend this recipe.
