Maple Mustard Carrots
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Nutritional values
Carrots provide us with plenty of beta-carotene. The plant pigment is converted in the body to vitamin A, which is important for healthy eyes. Mustard is a top helper for digestive problems due to the pungent substances and mustard oils - especially after eating fatty foods.
The aromatic carrots cut just as good a figure as a side dish as they do as a main course: As an accompaniment, for example, they go wonderfully with tender lamb or beef tenderloin. If you want to make the carrots the star of the dish, you can serve them with whole-grain couscous and a crisp green salad, for example.
