Baby carrots are a simple yet tasty side dish. I steam them for dinner or eat them raw as a nibble food when we have guests over. I’ve also posted a recipe to turn them into a salad.
So I was excited to see this Food Network post about 14 ways to use baby carrots. Some of these are just plain wacky. Carrot freezer pops? Well maybe.
Carrot juice is not my cup of tea (pun intended). And the glazed carrots involve butter which I don’t eat any longer. I may try them with just the honey or maybe with some olive oil first and then the honey to get a healthy fat on them.
Carrots with healthy dips sounds fun, more and more Greek yogurt dip recipes are popping up online, I’ve been meaning to try one of those.
The vegan cocktail pups sound fun, I can use Localfolk low-salt barbecue sauce and give that one a try next time my veggie-eating daughter is in town.
Roasting them is always a tasty treat, just leave out the salt in the recipe.
