# Instructions:

Slice both apples into thin matchstick-sized strips. Toss them in a small bowl with lemon juice to keep them from turning brown. Let them rest for about 5 minutes.

In a large bowl, pour in the shredded carrots. Add your diced onions and sprinkle in the cranberries.

After the apples have soaked for a few minutes, toss them into the big bowl. Mix in the yogurt, mayo, sugar, pepper, and salt.

Mix everything together until evenly blended. Gently fold in your mandarin pieces at the end so they don’t squish.

Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and put it in the fridge for a few hours to chill. Once cold, it’s ready to eat!
