Carrots As A Soup

As soon as there’s a chill in the air, I’m all about making soup. Cream of carrot soup is one of my favorites to make and to eat in the fall and winter. It uses up carrots in a great way, and you can either roast the carrots first, or simply boil them.

In A Stock

Carrots add a richness to any soup stock you make for the colder seasons. Since they are so inexpensive, using carrots and onions in your stock is an all-around genius idea. I save carrots tops to use in my vegetable or chicken stock, to stretch my purchase even more.

This simple side dish for mashed carrots is perfect for the whole family.

A Cool Side Dish

Yes, carrots is a typical side dish for your weeknight dinners, but have you ever mashed them? Mashed carrots is a family favorite around here, because I add a drizzle of olive oil to the top. Again, roasted carrots would make this side dish even more lovely, but it’s not necessary.

As A Dip
