I have a large bag of leftover carrots because, uh, Reasons and I'm looking for ideas what to do with them. Aside from the predictable STW answers as to where to stick them in lieu of frozen sausages, any suggestions?
Soup is the obvious answer and likely what I'll do but I'm open to recipe ideas.
Also, anything else other than soup? 🤷♂️
Ta.
Cake
Lots of cake
Eat them. They make rubbish pets.
Use them as bait to catch rabbits?
Improve your eyesight.
Keep them until Halloween and make little stick-men lanterns
My son's puppy will eat any excess
A family of jack-o-carrots?
Make comedy shapes out of them to give Poopscoop some inspiration.
Every dog I know seems to love raw carrots. And they aren't too fussy about quality.
Yup my dog loves a carrot. They come out grated and undigested.
Flapjack instead of cake would be a good call. Or Carrot and coriander soup.
Adam Buxton would suggest
“Have a carrot. Have two carrots. Go to the toilet, take your time”
Have them with ice cream, strawberries are really expensive.
Swap the carrots for beetroot and make chocolate beetroot brownie.
If no swaps then carrot cake.
Just cake.
CAKE.
Juice them. Fresh carrot juice is unreal.
I bought a juicer when they were a fad. Gave up juicing stuff obviously cos it was a fad. But still push a load of carrots through occasionally, it's just so good.

Oh, genius!
Camberwell carrots for the win .
This isn't going quite how I'd hoped.
Expected, perhaps.
Peel them, and boil them in some salty water. Mash them with some seasoning and lurpak. Sculpt them into as large a replica of Carrot Ironfoundsson as possible. Pretend to be Captain Vimes.
Coleslaw.
Savoury carrot and oat cake.
125g each of grated carrot, grated cheese(red Leicester is nice), and oats. 2 eggs, mix all together and press into a 20cm sandwich tin.
200 degrees in the oven for about 25 minutes, possibly 180 for a fan oven?
Let cool slightly.
You can use as a base for all sorts of stuff, throw in a handful of seeds or nuts, add in chopped bacon, peppers, onion, whatever you fancy.
Chop them into chunks, fry in a bit of butter+oil with some cumin and chilli. When getting slightly browned add some garlic, fry a bit more, then add a jar of rinsed chickpeas and half a glass of orange juice. Warm through and serve in pitta bread.
Or stick them up your bum, your choice.

Buy a weaner pig. Feed the carrots to him. Buy more carrots, feed pig. Repeat. After a few months send pig off and enjoy the transformation of carrots into BACON!
Nuke 'em from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.

Nope my salad dogdger only eats frozen peas.
Grate them serve them in bread product of choice* with peanut butter and a squeeze of lime. Add anythign else you fance, humus tomatoes jalapenos etc. bangin.
Wraps for preference. but toast works well. The wraps make phenominal cycling food.

Squeeze the oil out of them and sell it!
(My daughter's sunbathing using "carrot oil" and judging by the colour of her - not orange - it works!!
🤷🏻♂️)
Cake, fritters, tsk tsk, so standardized.

Might just have to try that later...
And of course I'm assuimg your carroty error is due to you opening the fridge and due to some kind of memory error you found more carrots than you originally put in.
roasted Carrot Hummus, it's amazing (and according to my Syrian friend an abomination) 🙂
An ambush of cake.
Exploding carrots?
I really can't help with ideas but I feel your pain having once accidentally online shopped for 6 carrots but somehow managed to add 6 1kg bags of them to my basket. Why I didn't reject them on delivery I do not know – I think it was early days of online shopping.

Quite. Somehow, I'm stuck with an odd number of them.
A big bowl of humous, perhaps flavoured to your liking, with many batons of carrot. Covid party with people outside your household double dipping individual batons optional. 😉
Buy cheap low quality gold, enhance it, sell it. Profit 😉
Recipes, then? 😁
Carrot salad recipe:
Grate carrots into bowl, add a good glob of mayonnaise and seasoning (I like a bit of black pepper).
Stir. Add a handful of raisens or sultanas. Stir more.
Add more of any ingredient to taste.
Eat.
Buy a snow machine and surprise your friends and neighbours with a garden full of snowmen on the hottest day of the year.

Make a flute.
If all else fails either buy a rabbit to recycle them or put them in the compost heap.
Quite. Somehow, I’m stuck with an odd number of them.
Can you throw one over the garden wall so that you have an even number?
I’m going to go out on a limb here, and suggest cake 😉
