Carrot Hash Browns Recipe

Posted on September 15, 2016

Brighten up breakfast with a variation of the ubiquitous hash brown. Substitute shredded carrots for potatoes and begin your day with a nutritious serving of delicious, healthy veggies. Carrots are full of the powerful antioxidant, beta carotene, which your body can convert to vitamin A. Your parents probably told you to eat your carrots for good reason.

Fortunately, carrots are available year round. When buying carrots, look for a bright orange-gold color and medium size. If the tops are still attached, be sure they are bright green and healthy looking. Remove the tops before storing carrots in a cool, dry place. The tops tend to draw moisture from the carrot and make it rubbery.
