Lost but Not Forgotten: The Recipe for Chick-fil-A's Carrot & Raisin Salad
It's been almost a decade since the Carrot & Raisin Salad graced Chick-fil-A menus, but fans of the chicken chain continue to mourn the loss of the beloved side.
Sadly, no amount of desperate pleading seems able to convince Chick-fil-A to bring the quirky salad back. Heck, we even tried!
But there is good news. If you live in the Atlanta area, you can still get your hands on the Truett Cathy creation at Chick-fil-A's heritage restaurant concepts, Truett's Grill and Dwarf House.
For the rest of us, we'll just have to rely on some good old-fashioned elbow grease. Fortunately, Chick-fil-A was kind enough to share its easy recipe for the Carrot & Raisin Salad online, so you can recreate it at home.
