Thank you, that’s very helpful!
I was cleaning out the fridge and making a grocery list for tomorrow. I came across a 2 pound bag of carrots that Mom gave me - ostensibly for Ithaca, but they were really NICE carrots. Sweet, too! So...
Eating for FREE: I kept 6 for Ithaca. I peeled the rest of them and am making three things:
Carrot Cake Muffins: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/242115/carrot-cake-muffins/
Herb Buttered Carrots: https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/herb-buttered-baby-carrots/print/#
And the ‘skinny ends’ from grating those that are going into the Carrot Cake Muffins are in a bowl for veggie dipping snacks.
Winning! That’s a decent amount of food from $1.49 worth of carrots. :)
