Nutritional values
Carrots contain the fat-soluble vitamin A, which strengthens vision. This can only be absorbed by the body in combination with fat. That is why a few drops of oil are always recommended when eating the root vegetable. The cereal product couscous contains many carbohydrates and fiber, but little fat; it is also rich in B vitamins and minerals.
If you get some, try to use whole-grain couscous. This contains even more fiber, minerals, and vitamins than the light version. Try this recipe with turkey breast - equally as tasty!
