Hi all.  I participate in a fruit and veg co-op and pick up is this Saturday.  I have only until tomorrow night to decide, would I be able to use a 25 lb bag of carrots?  It sounds like such a fun chalenge...but... carrots?  without jarring, freezing or juicing, I am not sure how to use them. Any ideas? What would you do with them? I am kind of leaning in the lots of cakes direction, but, would love to get y'alls feedback!!

You could make Sweey Potato Pie substituing the carrots for sweet potato.

Carrot Souffle, carrot salad (the pineapple/raisin one), carrot cookies (although they aren't as good as I remembered from my childhood). Cake is good, of course! Roasted carrots with orange sauce.

carrots cooked with bacon and onions goes over well at our house. Know you can't make pounds of it but hopefully one more suggestion will help :)

If they were mine, and they might very well be come late summer. I planted 21 carrot plants, paired. I would turn a bunch of them into Morrocan Carrot soup and freeze individual portions. If you were to triple the recipe, you'd get enough for 4 servings for tonight and 8 frozen using 3Lbs of carrots. the recipe is here, http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Moroccan-Carrot-Soup-357911

I have a Italian carrot sauce somewhere. It calls for a pound of carrots and Italian sausage. Carrots last forever...Id get them!

You should be able to store them in a cool dark place for months.
