Our children would never eat carrots, and I could never find a recipe to please their taste buds. Then a friend shared this recipe, and sure enough...they loved it! Now they request this dish.—Sherry Johnson, Glenfield, North Dakota
Ingredients:
2 pounds carrots, sliced
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup butter, divided
3 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1-1/2 cups milk
4 ounces process american cheese, cubed
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 cups cornflakes, crushed
Directions:
1. Cook the carrots until crisp-tender; drain and set aside. In a saucepan over medium heat, saute onion in 3 tablespoons butter until tender. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Gradually add milk; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook for 1 minute or until thickened. Stir in the cheese just until melted. Add carrots and parsley. Pour into a greased 8-in. square baking dish. Melt remaining butter; add cornflakes. Sprinkle over carrots. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly. Yield: 8-10 servings.
