Cheesy Carrots

This is my absolute favorite recipe for cooked carrots.  I think I ate 1 1/2 pounds of carrots in two days!  Thankfully I experienced no symptoms of Vitamin A toxicity.

Cheesy Carrots

from Allrecipes.com

2 pounds carrots, cut into 2 inch pieces

2 Tbsp. butter

1 onion, minced

8 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded

1 green bell pepper, minced

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (I used dried parsley and used less)

salt and pepper to taste

3/4 cup dry bread crumbs (I forgot these this time but it was still delicious)

Directions

1)  In a large pot of water, boil carrots until soft.  Drain well.

2)  Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Grease a 9 x 13 casserole dish.

3)  Place carrots in a large mixing bowl and mash them well.  Stir in butter, onion, cheese, green pepper, parsley , salt and pepper.  Transfer to the prepared baking dish and top with bread crumbs.

4)  Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for 40 minutes.

Aaron, Madeline and I all love these.  Thank you, Angela, for introducing me to this recipe at large group years ago!  I still make it!
