Instructions

Prep your ingredients: julienne or grate carrots, dice apricots and chop your toasted pecans (don't skip the toasting - it really brings out their nuttiness). Transfer everything to a large mixing bowl.
In a small mixing bowl, combine all dressing ingredients and stir to combine. Add dressing to the salad to taste and serve.
