Carrot salads are a great way to enjoy carrots in the summer, but if you like your carrots cooked instead of raw, grilling is a great option. Love carrots and peas? How about pea sprouts instead? And if you are concerned about food waste, you can use those broccoli stems in a delicious carrot slaw!
