My vet also recommended carrots but warned me that most dogs won't eat them. Fortunately my dog loves them more than raw hides. I just wash them off and break them in half or thirds.

Carrots.
Both my dogs adore carrots. Makes a great snack, cleans the teeth. Especially good for the one who acts ravenous all the time but would get pudgy if I let her.
roasted carrots
Preheat oven to 400
Place baby carrots on a cookie sheet (one with sides), drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper
Roast in hot oven until fork tender...about 30-40 minutes...yummy and easy!
Oh that's right! Carrots have sugar don't they? sm
Peas do too, another of my favorites right along with the oranges, bananas and grapes I have in the fridge. Sigh. Guess I had better get a book on low sugar cooking since I will be taking high doses of corticosteroids again real soon. That will certainly send my glucose into orbit.
Not sure about that, but I thought fresh carrots are usually used. What about
salt in canned foods? That would be my concern with taste, etc.
use frozen carrots in soups/stews/roast
I always use frozen carrots and celery and onions in my soups, stews, roasts, gravy, etc. You can either thaw them in the fridge (probably the upper part of yours) or in the microwave before throwing into the pot...otherwise start them at the beginnig of the recipe so they have a chance to get a head start over everything else and thaw that way. freezing veggies is a great way to 'use' them before they go bad. we don't eat a whole bundle of carrots or celery before the go bad so when i know they are getting close i chop them all up and freeze them. same with bananas for banana bread and the fixings for salsa. :)
Mix in some spinach, kale, or broccoli to cut the effect of carrots on your blood

Pasta with zukes, carrots, onion, garlic, basil...sm
sauted in olive oil, with a garden salad. All of that (except the pasta, of course) from the garden. You guys posted lots of yummy plans.
