Notes

Are carrot fries healthy?

Yes, yes, they are. Carrots contain no trans fats or hydrogenated oils, which means they're free of artery-clogging saturated fat. And because they're low in sodium, high in fiber, and loaded with vitamin A, C, and K, these little guys will keep you feeling full longer than most fast food options. Plus, they're naturally gluten-free, making them an excellent choice for those who have celiac disease or wheat allergies.

Combine mayo + BBQ in even portions to create a delicious sauce that goes great with carrot fries!
