Once you start eating this delicious dip, it’s difficult to stop. The smooth texture and sweet carrot flavor go great with the crisp pita wedges. —Alana Rowley, Calgary, Alberta

Ingredients

10 medium carrots
5 garlic cloves, peeled
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 to 8 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1/8 teaspoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 to 6 pita breads (6 inches)
2 to 3 tablespoons butter, melted

Directions

Cut carrots in half widthwise; cut lengthwise into 1/2-in.-thick slices. In a large bowl, combine the carrots, garlic and oil; toss to coat. Transfer to a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan.
Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 20 minutes. Stir; bake 15-20 minutes longer or until carrots are tender. Cool slightly.
In a blender, combine 6 tablespoons water, vinegar, mayonnaise, sour cream, sugar, salt, pepper and carrot mixture; cover and process until smooth. Add additional water if needed to achieve desired consistency. Transfer to a large bowl; refrigerate until serving.
Brush both sides of pita breads with butter. Cut in half; cut each half into six wedges. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 4 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Serve with carrot dip. Yield: 8-10 servings.

We don't care for sweet dips, so I did not add any sugar, but did add a heaping tablespoon prepared horseradish and a heaping tablespoon spicy brown mustard. Yummy. I will serve it next week, so we shall see what the crowd says.

I'm making it for the second time now! This dip is delicious made just as the recipe reads. I served it at a get together and everyone ranted and raved how good it was.

It might just become my new signature dish to take to parties!

I didn't care for this dip... I thought the sweetness of the carrots just didn't go well with the rest of the ingredients.

What an unusual blend of flavors for a dip! It is very good. I always have to make extra roasted carrots to eat before I make the dip because they are so good!
