Notes
- No need to peel the carrots unless you feel like it. Just wash them well first!
- Fridge: These carrot noodles keep well in the fridge and can be reheated in a saucepan or the microwave. They are also pretty darn good cold!
- Freezer: You can also freeze them in a plastic bag with the air removed. When ready to use, just thaw them in the fridge overnight.
