Clouds at Sunset

“We gave a weather-themed birthday party for my brother, who constantly keeps an eye on conditions. It was fun to come up with appropriate names for some of his favorite recipes. Fluffy garlic mashed potatoes and carrots became Clouds at Sunset. They're topped with a gravy of ground beef and peas we called Pea Soup Fog for the occasion. -Ndara Pike, Tempe, Arizona”

This was wonderful! The first thought that came to me when I saw this recipe was "I can't believe I never thought of mashed carrots and potatoes..." They were a delight. I used my own beef gravy: add a half to a whole tablespoon of butter (depending on the fattiness of the beef) to the beef along with a heaping tablespoon of flour, cook for a minute and add about a cup of milk (sometimes I half that along with a half a cup of beef stock if it's around). This is a keeper, and I love the names! Thanks a lot!

I love the name of this recipe! I liked this dish, although my husband wasn't a big fan. I think it needed some extra spices...I added extra minced garlic to the potatoes/carrots and put a few tablespoons of minced garlic as well as a few sprinkles of garlic powder into the meat mixture. But, I think it needs more seasonings...it's good though and makes a large amount.

I LOVE this recipe. My children adore it, and it is an easy way to get them to eat cooked carrots. It's easy to make and is a great alternative to casseroles.
