Carrot-uccine. A healthy, crunchy, colourful and yummy take on fettucine.
Why so good?
One large carrot gives a whopping two and a half times your daily recommended vitamin A intake - helping to keep your peepers sparkling and healthy and improve night vision.
According to Wikipedia (so therefore fact, obviously), during WWII the RAF hid their advanced radar technology from axis powers by spreading rumours that their gunners' high carrot consumption had resulted in amazing night vision.
Whether or not this humble little root vegetable is really responsible for helping the allies, we do know it can help you work our way towards a healthy waistline.
The perfect option for a warm summers evening.
The How-To:
1. Wash carrot well
2. Use a potato peeler to cut carrot into thin strips
3. Optional: add to pasta sauce a few minutes before serving to soften a little. Or just go ahead and use raw!
