Carrots, Shredded

EverydayFresh

Shredded carrots are fresh carrots cut into thin, uniform strands, offering a convenient pre-prepared form that retains the vegetable’s crisp texture and bright sweetness. This preparation preserves their high beta-carotene content (a vitamin A precursor) and dietary fiber while making them ideal for raw applications like salads and slaws or quick-cooked dishes such as stir-fries. The increased surface area of shredded carrots allows for faster cooking and easier incorporation into baked goods, while their low calorie density supports weight-conscious meal planning.
