IC - hey carrot cake is a healthy recipe - it's got carrots in it! mmmmmmmm -

I love the carrot-raisin salad that mama posted a recipe for- but per my nephew's love of peanut-butter, I sometimes whisk a little PB into the mayo, too. Any leftovers also make great muffins the next day!

I think maybe tomorrow I will try the carrots with lime. Mama you put this thread up just in time. Yesterday after eating a huge bag of carrots with humus I don't think I can face the other bag of carrots in my fridge. I was looking for ideas.

Or the very best of all FRESH CARROT JUICE!!!! Simply refreshing, sweet, wholesome and oh so GOOD for your eyes

[Cook Chatty Cathy]

P.S. When juicing fresh carrots drink juice immediately! It is so much better for you, if you do have to store it place into a bottle or jar and vaccum seal with your Food Saver! Juice (well the nutrients in it) deterioriate very rapidly when exsposed to oxygen!

I am SO into the kooky. I've made avocado icecream and it was really good. I really, really want to try a recipe for salted caramel ice cream with candied bacon. I just need another 8 hours a day for all the cooking projects I want to try. I'm sure this would actually be really good. Maybe reminicent of Indian carrot pudding! That's it maybe I will use some of my carrot to try Indian carrot pudding icecream!

Let me know if you make it and if you like it!

I like plain, nekid carrots, peeled, wrapped in foil and baked until tender, about 45 mins. Then take out and cover with melted butter. I don't know why baking them makes them taste soooo much better, but I do two pounds, and there's rarely any left!
