Coarsely grate carrots and apples, slice romaine into strips, dress with lemon, a little maple syrup and oil – and a fresh salad is ready in a quarter of an hour.
It makes a crunchy side for grilled food, roast vegetables or soup, but is also good on its own as a light lunch.

Tips & Notes
Serve fresh: Only dress the salad just before eating, otherwise the romaine goes limp and the apples release water.
More crunch: Sprinkle with a few toasted sunflower or pumpkin seeds.
Honey: If you tolerate honey well, you can use 1 tbsp honey instead of maple syrup in the dressing, as in the original recipe.
