Carrot SaladCarrots, carrots & more carrots! Alaskan carrots are far sweeter than outside grown carrots because of the cool temperatures in the fall, so take advantage of that great flavor and showcase them raw in a salad all their own! http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/carrot-salad-recipe-1941888
Fresh Rolls w/ Cabbage & Carrots (& Thai Basil & Sunflower Shoots!)I feel like these are easier to make than recipes often make them sound, so don’t be intimidated if you’ve never tried before! Basically just cut up a bunch of veggies you want to include, whisk up a sauce, then soak the rice paper for a couple seconds before making each roll; it really goes quite fast once you get the hang of it. I would be sure to add some of your fresh thai basil to these babies and some sunflower shoots would probably taste great as well! https://sallysba
Beef Stew w/ Carrots & PotatoesCarrots and potatoes are staples of the winter season. Try this classic French stew for a hearty dinner with family and friends this holiday season, now that it finally feels like true winter! https://www.onceuponachef.com/recipes/beef-stew-with-carrots-potatoes.html
Cabbage & Carrot Stir-Fry w/ Toasted Cumin & Lime (& Daikon Sprouts!)'Tis the season of cabbage and carrots, as they are some of the few items that store really well long into the winter. I personally would sub sesame oil for the canola oil in this recipe & add a little ginger for some more kick. I would add raw daikon shoots when serving or you could add them to your pan at the very end to lightly cook if you want a more subtle flavor: http://www.finecooking.com/recipe/cabbage-carrot-stir-fry-with-toasted-cumin-lime
