Green Chili with Tomatillos, Hatch Chili and Carrots
So this was a happy experiment. I started out a carrot puree recipe and also a green chili recipe. I roasted hatch chilis, tomatillos and garlic in the oven and put the carrots on the pot to boil. As I was following both recipes simultaneously, I decided they would actually taste great together! The hubby agreed as we made burritos and added the sauce to them. It's a thicker mix but a great addition to any Spanish flared dish. Fresh garlic and carrots from the garden can't be beat!
Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Carrots
CARROT Recipe #3
[A couple of weeks ago, the hubby harvested carrots from our garden--a big basket full! I decided to explore the world of recipes that contain carrots. This is the first of many that I tried; very pleased with all of them. It didn't really feel like we had a daily ration of carrots because of the multiple ways they can be served and prepared.]
I love that this one is so simple and easy; and roasted brussels sprouts are AMAZING! Adding carrots just makes them that much better. We also had a lot of fresh garlic from the garden, so I boiled them, then roasted them separately before peeling and adding to this pan. What I love is the use of fresh lime and red pepper flakes as the seasoning for roasting. I'm pretty sure I could eat this combination every day.

Thai Sweet Potato Carrot Soup

This is probably my favorite that I'll make again later this fall when it's soup weather. Carrots and sweet potatoes taste so good together! I didn't puree as instructed but cooked it down as a thick stew. I also somehow completely missed the roasted cashews section of this recipe, but ended up serving it with chicken anyway, so the double protein would have been unnecessary. I also added fresh lime juice and cilantro at the end. It's a great side dish for any meat of choice.

This one was easy because I used the shredder attachment on my Kitchenaid, just added a few ingredients and boom! Instant salad. I love honey and apple cider vinegar as a healthy option. The great thing is that this particular salad will keep in the fridge for several days. If I took this to a potluck, it would feel like cheating because it was so effortless.
