Great Grandma’s Sheep-Wagon Carrot Cake
If you find yourself with extra carrot culls, try Great Grandma’s Sheep-Wagon Carrot Cake (found at Cooks.com). My recipe is more than 30 years old and was given me by my sister-in-law. I googled the name on an off chance and there it was, almost identical. I always used a bit less sugar, and maybe a touch more butter but it makes great muffins too (just shorten baking time). The cake doesn’t need a frosting, but if you like frosting you can add this one from Allrecipes.com. (more…)

Skillet Roasted Parsnips and Carrots
Parsnips and carrots are a classic fall side dish. It’s best to use parsnips less than an inch wide, as wider parsnips tend to have tough, fibrous cores that are best trimmed and discarded. Using warm water will help the sugar dissolve more readily. This recipe comes from Cook’s Illustrated and can also be found on genius kitchen. Serves 6-8. (more…)
