One of my favorite vegetables is carrots. I like to eat them with ranch dip. Do you like carrots?

Yes, I do. We used to grow this root vegetable in our garden.  The various size and shapes were fun to pull up out of the ground !

I see. Carrots are great as a snack but they are also used in many baked dishes. I love a good carrot cake!

Especially with cream cheese frosting.  Carrots are quite high in Vitamin K and B6, but dont believe what you read about your eyesight getting better LOL

Yes, that myth is quite prevalent! The vitamins in carrots make it an ideal ingredient in nutritious recipes.

Many people think carrots are ONLY orange. I've read they have other colors as well.
