Nutritional values

Carrots contain a lot of beta-carotene, a powerful nutrient which transforms into vitamin A in the body. However our bodys can only fully absorb the beta-carotene when the carrots are cooked. 

Serve the carrots with a dip of cheese and herbs, then the vegetables will change from side dish to main course!
