Light and Fluffy Carrot Souffle


I’ll consider this Light and Fluffy Carrot Souffle as a dessert but it is also considered as a sweet side dish. Frank made this delightful casserole.

  1. I just bought a 5 pound bag of carrots, so I am going to try this. I think I’ll microwave the carrots to save vitamins, and beat the egg whites until fluffy before combining ingredients. Do you think it would be good without the sugar and vanilla?
