so I have a bag of peeled baby carrots.....and I hate carrots...?

Question

however...does anyone have any good ideas for turning it in to something more enjoyable?
I remember once had this caramelized carrots....but what else can I do with it?

is it possible if I make it in to some kind of cream of carrots soup...?

Answer 1

You can always make carrot cake. Not very healthy but very tasty :)

Answer 2

Take a whole onion and chop it up, put it in a buttered baking dish with the baby carrots and a large can of yams and juice too, just judge how much you will need, this will cook the carrots and be the end sauce, so use your judgment. Add some brown sugar over the top and pats of butter, dotted here and there, add a little cinnamon and nutmeg sprinkled over everything to kick up the spicey-ness. Cover with tinfoil and bake at 350 for about 45 minutes or so. Serve as a side dish with BBQ chciken and a salad.

For soup:

Use water or vegetable stock, not too much though because you will be adding a can of evaporated milk after the carrots are done cooking, cook carrots til tender. When the carrots are done, take about half out and puree or smash them up fine, put them back in the pot, add that can of evaporated milk and a dollop of butter, add some salt if you want it salty or salt and a little brown sugar if you want to bring out the sweetness of the carrots, when serving, sprinkle a tiny bit of cinnamon on each serving and float a little cream or pat of butter on top. Serve with crusty rolls.

Answer 3

Even if you don't like carrots their are sooo many recipes to be made with them. You mentioned a soup I found a great web site that has a recipe for spicy carrot soup. I enlisted it below. What's Up Dock. Have fun cooking.

Answer 4

This is what I do, you need to make a Spaghetti, Sauce and as you let the sauce simmer (yes, you can use Jared sauce such as Ragu) put the carrots in the sauce, this will naturally sweeten it up a bit, and it will make it 3 times more healthy! You can't even taste the carrots in the sauce, cause were the sauce has been simmering, it softens the carrots and makes them unnoticeable!

Answer 5

I have hidden carrots in my pot roast for years.I get the mat and everything else in the pot.Then about 30 mins later I add my grated carrots to the pot.Then cook til meat is tender.The carrots make a real thick gravy.My kids never knew til they were grown and ask for my recipe...

Answer 6

Carrot cake!! You grate the carrots into the cake mix and you get to eat carrots without the crunchy orange thing going on. It's the best way!

Answer 7

Make the most of the flavor and texture of them. Saute in a pan with butter, brown sugar, ginger...kind of like the caramelized carrots you were describing. They pair well with other baby veggies, if you can find some.
