Fiesta Carrot Salad

I was so excited when I found a bunch of rainbow carrots at the store!  I had to buy them and make something fun. First, I wanted to make a pasta with them, but then some of them were a little too skinny to use in my sprializer.  So...spiralized some.  Then I julienned a few, and realized that they had a pretty pattern in the center so I decided to slice some.  So I ended up with a bowl of what looked like party decorations.  I decided to combine it with southwest ingredients that I had on hand, avocado, tomatoes, and green onions, then toss it in a chili lime vinaigrette. 

It was like a fiesta in my mouth, and it looked like one, so I thought it deserved to be named Fiesta Carrot Salad. It was so refreshing and packed with flavor, I glad I hadn't ended up with a bowl full of carrot noodles, because I think I would have gone another direction with flavors on this.  Sometimes not knowing what you are doing when you start making something leads to the best meals!
