Made this last night as an attempt to use some of the 5 lb bag of carrots in the fridge. There were only 3 of us, so I only used about half as many carrots as this recipe used, then just eyeballed the rest (but honestly, kept them at mostly these measurements - it was really creamy). Didn't have any ritz-like crackers, though, so subbed whole-wheat saltines. Also realized as it was time to add it in, that I didn't have any milk. Ended up subbing chicken broth and 2-3 tablespoons of sour cream. Delicious, if really unhealthy, way to eat your carrots!

Delicious. Be careful not to overcook the carrots

I made this for Thanksgiving and got mixed reviews. I enjoyed it, and several others told me they liked it, but I didn't make a whole lot and had plenty leftover. I gave it 3 because it wasn't bad, but it wasn't the big hit I had hoped it would be. I made it exactly as written.

Wanted to see if my brother-in-law would try carrots made this was as he usually refers to them as dirt sticks. He did try them, of course still not his preferred vegetable of choice. I did use unsalted butter instead of margarine, omitted the 1/2 tsp of salt (as I felt the cheese added enough sodium to the mix) and used 1/2 extra sharp cheddar and 1/2 American cheese (as I didn't have enough American cheese for the full 2/3 cup). Next time I might do as others have suggested which is add a sprinkle of garlic powder and a dash of hot sauce. Thank you GrammyRose for sharing this recipe.

Believe all the good things you've read about this recipe and don't change a thing! I was dubious the first time I tried this (carrots and cheese?!) but now it's one of the most requested recipes for family get-togethers and pot-luck dinners! My mouth waters just reading the recipe! ENJOY!!

I just made this for supper, and it was SOOOOO good! My sister, who hates EVERY vegetable, was over for dinner and had seconds! I didn't like the idea of the processed cheese, so I used half sharp cheddar and half mozzarella, and it was superb!

My family loved this! The only thing I changed was the topping which I doubled. It's a nice side dish. Was a great change from the normal veggies. I would make again and again.. also added to my printed book of favorites. Thanks for posting Grammyrose :)

I'm not sure if I would make it again. My husband does not usually like carrots but he thought these were good. I thought they were not bad but far from the best carrots I've had.

Lovely; very good way to get everyone to eat veggies. Absolutely delicious. Of course, I used whole carrots and it took much, much longer to cook, even with cutting them in half. Next time, sliced carrots will suffice. But the whole thing was good; the recipe would be good with other veggies, too.
