Rich and cheesy, this casserole is the very best way to eat carrots. Pretty orange slices peek out from under a bed of buttery cracker crumbs. My mom loves to cook and share recipes. She picked this one up from a dear friend. -Gloria Grant, Sterling, Illinois

My family loves this recipe. It is requested at all Holiday gatherings. I have been making this recipe since 1999.

Forgot to rate the recipe when I wrote the comment. I'll add something else...when I take this recipe to family events, people always rave about it.

My family does not like cooked carrots but they LOVE this casserole. I add one small clove garlic as well. If there are leftovers, they don't last for long!
