Happy National Carrot Day!

February 3rd is National Carrot Day!  This nutritious and delicious root vegetable certainly deserves the honor; however, it usually taken for granted, so I was pleasantly surprised to discover this celebration.  Carrots originated in central Asia, around Afghanistan, and have spread throughout the world.  They are rich in beta-carotene which metabolizes into Vitamin A, and essential nutrient.  Take a little time today to appreciate this versatile veggie!
