Carrot Tomato Salad

This is a salad that my Amma  made for us all the time. It was simple, tasted delicious and addition of this salad to the menu made it look like we were having a grand feast. I make it often these days because of its simplicity and to relive the nostalgic memories of Sunday lunch growing up. Today at the farmers market, I found pink carrots. I thought they would be pink when grated, but to my surprise, the interior was orange like a regular carrot. The farmer must have picked the produce early this morning to sell at the farmers market as they appeared very fresh. For lunch, I made this salad as a part of our meal It kind of leaves a clean and fresh taste in the mouth which I enjoy.
