Well Orange is the New Black (OINB) dropped into my Netflix queue just the other day.  I haven’t opened it up cause I know I’ll just binge watch until the whole season is gone.  In honor of my favorite color and OINB – here is one of my all time healthy living favorite recipes:

MOROCCAN CARROT DIP

Adapted from America’s Test Kitchen – Moroccan Carrot Dip (link below)

• 2 #’s carrots (about 12)
• 6 cups of water (to boil carrots in)
• salt
• pepper
• 1 clove of garlic
• 3/4 tsp ground coriander
• 3/4 tsp ground cumin
• 3/4 tsp ground ginger
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/3 cup of water
• 2 TBS cider vinegar

1.  Wash carrots, no need to peel.  Cut carrots in 2″ sections.  Bring to boil 6 cups of water.  Place carrots in and turn down to a medium simmer.  Cook until soft.

2.  Let carrots cool a bit.

3.  Place carrots and all the remaining ingredients starting with salt all the way to cider vinegar in a food processor.  Add more cider vinegar or additional spices to your liking.

Serve with vegetables, pita chips, or ????

Super easy peasy.  Enjoy!
