Carrots

HAPPY EASTER

In honor of that childish side of Easter... the Bunny I decided to feature Bunny food. Carrots of course.  We all know it is the food of choice for the Easter Bunny...Right?  Maybe I have been fed a web of lies but I must believe.

Such a colorful vegetable.  Liking juicing as I do the carrot is often my choice. Who knew me and the Easter Bunny enjoying the Elixir of the Bunny Gods.

Steam, boil, eat raw, juiced whatever your mind can create.  Here are two I recently had.

Carrot Salad

Peel and shred raw carrots.  Add chopped fresh dill and chopped scallions.  Mix olive oil and lemon for dressing.  I used basil olive oil.

Carrot Dip

Similar to hummus just done with carrots.
I used six large peeled and boiled carrots. Place in food processor and add spices.  I did 3 Tbsp of olive oil.
3 Tbsp apple cider vinegar. 1 Tbsp sweet paprika. 1 tsp cumin. 1/2 tsp cayenne. 1 garlic clove and a little salt and pepper.  Blend until smooth.

So in honor of the Easter Bunny and keeping in touch with our childish nature make some bunny food and have fun.  P.S. Don't forget to eat the chocolate bunnies!!!!
