Rolled Carrot Salad

  			This is my original recipe. If you are tired of just carrot salad, try this for a change. Use nori. Believe it or not, you can eat a whole carrot. Rolled carrot salad with nuts and creamy sauce. Cream cheese brings out rich flavor but since it is wrapped with nori, it is neither too rich nor heavy. If you like, add soy sauce then taste would be more Asian. Also if you don’t have a rolling mat, substitute plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
