Hi Everyone!! For a moment there I didn’t think Spring was going to come just yet, not sure where your neck of the woods is, but last week I thought the God of seasons was going to take us back to Winter.. (poor tulips and azaleas – they’re all confused). Thankfully it warmed up – and just in thyme – for our Spring Thyme Recipes and Style Blog Hop hosted by the lovely Tamyra who blogs at Positively Southern. If you’ve found me from Tamyra’s, Welcome! and Thank You for joining me. Today I’ll be sharing a family favorite recipe. This is a recipe my mother created when we were kids.. (a way to get us to eat carrots), and boy did it work. It’s a sweet side dish and it’s hard to believe it’s made from carrots. It’s suppose to be a family secret recipe, but when something is this good – I feel compelled to share. It’s a very easy to follow recipe and it’s sure to please.
The egg beater does all the hard work.. All you have to do is add the ingredients… pour in dish and bake…
Out comes this warm and delightful tasty dish. This carrot souffle makes you want to treat it like a dessert and save the best for last.
Carrot Souffle

Yum, yum, YUM!! I have to try, pin and share.
Hey Glenda!! That’s great to hear. 🙂 Enjoy
My mouth is watering already Jamala! Carrot Souffle is definitely going on my list of recipes to try! Thank you!
Can I just say that I am excited about this recipe! I have long been a lover of carrot souffle but have never made it. I too have printed it and can’t wait to prepare this!!!
I’m happy to hear that! I hope you enjoy it..
As one of those people who buys carrots with all good intentions, but never eats them, I am thrilled to have this recipe. I printed it and I already know that this is the only way I will enjoy carrots. By the way, Kim, I’ve been using my spices in all sorts of ways and I’ve been wanting to ask you if you have mixed the chipotle spices with mayonnaise and used it on sandwiches? It is excellent! How did your mom ever come up with the carrot souffle recipe?

Great Ginene!! I hope you like it.. I even had a cousin who hates carrots and when tasted this – she was hooked..(seriously) I couldn’t tell you how mom came up with it but it sure worked for us.. It’s so funny you mentioned the seasonings, because I was going to send you an email asking if you’re enjoying them. I’m so happy to hear you are!!! Yes, I’ve tried it mixed. it’s makes a great tasting remoulade for my salmon burgers. Gives it a different kick..I’ve not tried it on cold cuts.. but now you’ve peaked my interest.. thanks for telling me that.
