Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    If your carrots are very thin, cut in half lengthwise instead of quartering.
  • tip 2
    Try experimenting with other herbs, such as fresh thyme or sage. Just keep in mind those herbs are stronger than parsley, so you won’t need as much.
  • tip 3
    Always read the labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is vegetarian. Products and ingredient sources can change.
