CARROTS AND RAISINS (HEALTHY SNACK)



Carrots and Raisins (Healthy Snack) image

This came from my mother who managed to grow two kids taller(and I mean taller!) then herself. We ate these carrots all the time! Overall is a great snack that is tasty. I suggest to adjust to your taste, some like it soggy some not, just don't make it in advance, will lose the carotene ;) Make sure to exclude raisins if prepared for infants or toddlers under 5. Use your own judgment but raisins ARE choking hazard.

Time 6m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 large carrots
1/4 cup raisins
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 -3 teaspoons sugar

Steps:

  • Place raisins in a small amount of water, so they plump up a little. (this step is optional) Grate carrots on a smallest part of your grater.
  • Combine grated carrots, sour cream, raisins (take them out of water prior) and then add sugar (adjust to your taste).
  • We love it just the way it is and my l'il one gets his nutrition.
  • Beware, this combination may make your kids grow few inches taller. Carotene with sour cream and sugar is a dangerous mix for your kid's growth potential.

EASY GLAZED CARROTS AND RAISINS



Easy Glazed Carrots and Raisins image

I usually make my glazed carrots with fresh baby carrots, butter, and honey. However, tonight I needed a quick side to go with my Easy One Pot Lentils and Rice. I did not have any fresh carrots or honey on hand (I need to get to the grocery store!) but I had a can or organic sliced carrots and some brown sugar. I decided to add raisins, because my 18 month old dd LOVES them, but cannot eat them unless they are chopped or cooked. (due to the fact that they are a major choking hazard) This is what I came up with. I served the lentils and rice as a rice ring, and served it with the carrots and raisins in the middle. (lifted out of the pan with a slotted spoon) My family really enjoyed it, and the kids appreciated the presentation! Whatever works to get them to eat healthy! ;o)
