SPICY CARROT FRIES



Spicy Carrot Fries image

I'm always on the lookout for alternatives to carb-laden sides. When I tested this recipe, the fries were gone within minutes. It's spicy, but not overwhelmingly so, and it has a soft inside with a crispy exterior. You can take it up a notch and serve them with the dipping sauce, but they're totally awesome on their own, too. Make much more than you estimate you'll need! READ MORE
