¼ cup chopped roasted nuts ((peanuts, cashews, or pistachios))

Instructions
In the bottom of a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Peel and julienne (or coarsely grate) the carrots and place in the same large bowl.
Add the cilantro, and toss everything together until evenly coated.
Let the salad sit for at least 15 minutes in the fridge to marinate the carrots in the dressing. Add nuts immediately prior to serving; stir well. Taste the salad and add more salt or pepper, if desired.
Serve chilled or at room temperature.
