    Used the food processor to save time and make this weeknight possible and included all of the fixings. I halved the amount of carrots because I wanted to avoid too much sweetness, but kept everything else about the same. Great flavor and will repeat.

    A hit with my family. Hubby said you can make this again. Son wants me to leave out carrots next time or at least add a lot less. Neither him or his dad are fans of cooked carrots. I think I will also add more potato next time.

    Another great recipe from this book. I cut back on the chile to bring the heat down. The recipe calls for a lot of carrot, which lends a pretty sweet flavor the final result. Next time, I might adjust the carrot/potato ratio to be a bit more balanced.
