As a child, I was never a fan of carrots. I don’t know why I disliked those orange sticks but I would refuse to eat them. It took several years before I became fully acclimated with carrots. At first, they were finely chopped to the dishes I prepared so that I could barely feel them while eating. Then later, the sizes became bigger and I started eating carrots without any side dishes with it. Slowly, I learned to like and love it! The health benefits of eating carrots are undeniable and they should be a part of everyone’s diet, not just vegans.
Now that I am a mom, carrots are not in the favorite food list of my kids as well. But, I know of several ways to sneak carrots in their meals and snacks. Whether you love carrots more than romantic walks on the beach, or you try to avoid them at all cost, you will love these creative carrot recipes. All of them are delicious and you can get them on the next pages.
Vegan Carrot Cake (& Frosting) Recipe
This year, I took some liberties with my mom’s recipe and made a fully vegan version – frosting and all. Instead of cream cheese (or tofu cream cheese), I made a cream cheese-like frosting using macadamia nuts, cashews, lemon and Almond Breeze. And instead of powdered sugar, the frosting is sweetened with maple syrup.

This soup is so easy and quick to make that I never actually considered writing down the amounts of each ingredient I use to post here. How selfish of me! Simple recipes tend to be the best and once you’ve made this ginger carrot soup once, you’ll be able to make it again without needing to look at the recipe.
Crispy Baked Carrot Chips (Sweet or Spicy!)
While my chips were baking I watched them like a hawk, and I took out a few of the chips that were browning faster than others so they all got a chance to cook evenly.
Vegan Carrot Ginger Cream Spaghetti Sauce
I always go back to this cream sauce because it’s extremely accessible and tastes like it isn’t. The carrot is paired with ginger, making for an earthy tone with robust kicks. Carrot is one of those vegetables that is actually better for you when cooked, because humans don’t chew carrots properly and cooking helps to break down carrot cell walls and make the nutrients more readily available. This recipe is simple, cheap, and animal/figure-friendly – just the way I like it! Enjoy!
