Carrots About to go Bad?

Here are some ideas for those carrots in your fridge that are about to go bad!

1. Make soup!  Even if all you have on hand is broth, you can chop up those carrots and boil them in some broth and freeze that for when you want some chicken/turkey/beef soup!  If you don't have broth on hand, just boil them in water and drain, then freeze.
2. Cut into slices, serve with dinner tonight as a side and send in lunches tomorrow.

3. Carrot Cake!  If you have the other ingredients on hand, go for it!  Just make sure that gets eaten, or freeze part of it so you're not wasting it.  You could also give it away to a neighbor or family member, or to a babysitter as a thank you.

4. Boil them down, grind them up, and freeze them in drops for your baby/toddler/preschooler.
