Rainbow carrots are such a pretty veggie and they taste delicious too! 

I have been a fan of this butter from Chef Shamy for years since I tried the product at Everything Food Conference. 

Now I buy a few different flavors every time I go to Sam’s Club.  

This French Onion butter is one of my favorites and tastes great on veggies.

Peel, remove the ends, and slice carrots into coins.

Add the carrots and water to a large skillet.

Bring a to a simmer and cook over medium heat for 8-10 minutes until tender.

All of the water should be evaporated. 

Now add a few scoops of butter. I start with 2 or 3 tbsp ad add more if needed. 

Stir in the butter. Cook and continue to stir for a few more minutes until coated.

Serve warm with just about any meal and enjoy!

Oh boy where does time go?! Just a day ago it seems it was Thanksgiving and I had so many recipes I wanted to share with y’all! Then time got away from me and now it’s 6 days into December! YIKES!
Forgive me for being behind but I just have to share this Carrot Souffle recipe I made for Thanksgiving dinner. It looks and has a similar texture to mashed sweet potatoes but instead of the traditional potatoes it’s pureed sweet carrots with a caramelized sugar topping!
 Scroll down for the recipe and a recap of our Thanksgiving day!

And since y’all have been so patient with me how about another giveaway?!

I am home in Florida now with my family for the holidays and one of my favorite things my mom and I like to do is check out the local holiday craft fairs and support the small businesses. I am a huge fan of Etsy.com and love giving my friends and family unique one of a kind homemade gifts instead of something generic from the store.So I have teamed up with Sharon and her shop UnCorkdArt, based in Crestview, FL. She describes her shop as “Unique Etched Glass with a Twist of Military Pride”.  

 

We are giving away one of her most popular items: a custom design 9X13 glass baking dish with your choice of any of her designs. I personally love the “I Saw This On Pinterest” design above and the EOD Crab symbol (for my hubby, of course). Check out her Etsy and Facebook pages to see all her crafty designed items and enter to win below!

I am THANKFUL for my Family!

We are lucky enough to rent a condo in Destin every Thanksgiving and spend the week with my Aunt and Uncle visiting from south Florida and my parents. Last year Ava was teeny tiny so this year was her first “real” Thanksgiving! My parents and Uncle Mike love to cook (Have you seen my Iron Chef battle video with my Uncle Mike?) and this year we had quite the spread even though we had a smaller group (Ashton is deployed overseas and my sweet Grandma passed on in July). My Dad made a Turducken for the first time, Mike made Ham, Crab Bisque, and Green Bean Casserole, Mom made Stuffing and Cranberries, and I made Carrot Souffles and Pumpkin Dip. For dessert my Uncle Mike, always the overachiever (haha) made a Key Lime Cheescake with key limes picked off his own tree! Ava liked the ham, cranberries, and Pumpkin Dip the most but she did try my Carrots too. What a blessing it was to spend some time with our family in beautiful Destin! I love my hometown! I just wish my Ashton could have been there!
