True baby carrots—you know, the ones with beautiful long stems and frilly leaves, not the gnarled bits that come bagged in super markets—are hitting their prime! I cannot wait to grab a bunch (or three!) at the farmers' market. With carrots on the brain, I thought it would be fun to round up the most enticing carrot recipes from around the web. Take a look, get some inspiration and dream up a carrot-cooking strategy for this weekend—that's what I'm going to do :) Your eyes and beautiful skin will thank you for it! xo Erin
Above, Carrot-Lemon Risotto from Martha Stewart Living! (I'm thinking of making boyfriend a special, lazy lunch on Saturday featuring this and a bottle of funky white wine—thoughts?)
