Carrot Souffle

Teresa Ambra
Carrot Souffle is so awesome. You will never guess it's carrots in this wonderful souffle-style casserole. You will think it's sweet potatoes or butternut squash--but not carrots! This quick and easy side dish is wonderful for holidays like Thanksgiving or Christmas, but it's easy enough to prepare for regular weekday meals or company dinners. It's also a fantastic way to get your kids to eat their veggies!
