This is soooooo yummy! I cut the recipe in half since it is just me my husband and my toddler big mistake! We gobbled it all up and wanted more! Next time I will definately make the full 8 servings. Also I will add a little crushed garlic. Any time you see a 2.5 year old scarfing down cooked carrots you know it's a good recipe!
I made this recipe with a frozen vegetable mix (broccoli cauliflower & carrots) & I also used shredded cheddar rather than velveeta. It was quick & delicious & I think the vegetable variety added nice flavors. Thanks I will make this dish again & again!
These are absolutely fabulous. Even if you're not a big fan of carrots you will go back for more of this dish. I scaled it down to 4 people and used a 1 pound bag of baby carrots. I did cut them in half before steaming them. I served the dish with a honey ham and it did compliment it very well although I think it would go great with any main course. My 4-year-old ate all that was given to her. I highly recommend this dish.
I don't like carrots but this recipe was quite good. (kind of like a baked macaroni and cheese but with carrots instead of pasta) I think next time I'll try it with broccoli or cauliflower. I didn't add the onions and used crushed croutons instead of the crackers. Also I used seasoned salt instead of regular salt and light old cheddar instead of the processed cheese.
I fixed these carrots for Easter this year. My mother is still raving about them. My father who had a stroke a few years ago and won't eat a vege actually ate them and asked for more. They were so easy. This is a keeper in my house.
Great recipe for carrots. I baked my carrots first on a baking sheet with sea salt pepper and olive oil spray for about 15 minutes at 400 then let them cool enough to cut them into biite size chunks. I also used skim milk and club crackers. It was delicious. I love reading all the variations and will certainly make this one again. Thanks so much for sharing it.
This was great! I used the cornflakes and low-fat sharp cheddar and light margarine. Those were the only changes I made. It was a great change from the glazed carrots I normally make.
I HAD CARROTS THAT I NEEDED TO DO SOMETHING WITH AND I FOUND THIS RECIPE AND I AM SO GLAD I DID! VERY EASY TO MAKE AND VERY GOOD MY HUSBAND AND I JUST LOVED IT!! THANKS SO MUCH!!
I have been making this for years but instead of the crackers I use Kellog's corn flakes crumbs. It is fantastic. This is my default potluck dish and I never take any back home. I have even started writing out several copies of the recipe before hand to save time since I get asked for it so many times. I hate candied carrots so this is a wonderful alternative to them.
I have to say that I've never made something from this site that was rated over 4 stars and not loved it as well. This is a first. I don't know what it was about the combination but it did not work for anyone in my 6 person family. I followed the recipe as written (unusual for me). The crackers were pasty goo on top of bland carrots without much of a cheese flavor. Sorry!
