Carrot Pasta with Almond Foam

Nutritional values
Together with peas, almonds provide the whole family with about half of the vitamin E they need daily. As a natural antioxidant, the vitamin protects the body against harmful free radicals.
You can also replace half of the carrots with zucchini strips. Add these only at the end of the cooking time and bring to the boil again briefly with the pasta.
