Carrot Ketchup Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Trim the ends off the carrots and halve crosswise. Halve the carrots lengthwise, then cut lengthwise again in half or thirds, depending on the size, to create equal-size sticks.
• In a mixing bowl, toss together the carrots, olive oil, pepper, garlic powder, salt and thyme. Transfer to a baking sheet and spread into a single layer. Bake, flipping halfway through, until the carrots are cooked through and the edges begin to crisp, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix together the ketchup and ranch in a small bowl. Serve the carrot fries with the ketchupy ranch.

Steps:

• Stir all the ingredients together in a big saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
• Reduce the heat and simmer until the mixture has reduced by about half, 10-20 minutes.
• Let cool before serving.
• Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to five days or freeze in ¼-cup amounts in zipper-lock snack bags for up to three months.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Place the carrot, celery, onion, red bell pepper, mushrooms, and garlic in a food processor, and pulse until very finely chopped, almost to a puree. Place the minced vegetables into a large mixing bowl, and mix in ground chuck, Worcestershire sauce, and egg. Add Italian herbs, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Mix gently with a wooden spoon to incorporate vegetables and egg into the meat. Pour in bread crumbs. With your hand, gently mix in the crumbs with your fingertips just until combined, about 1 minute.
• Form the meatloaf into a ball. Pour olive oil into a baking dish and place the ball of meat into the dish. Shape the ball into a loaf, about 4 inches high by 6 inches across.
• Bake in the preheated oven just until the meatloaf is hot, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, ketchup, Dijon mustard, and hot sauce. Stir until the brown sugar has dissolved.
• Remove the meatloaf from the oven. With the back of a spoon, smooth the glaze onto the top of the meatloaf, then pull a little bit of glaze down the sides of the meatloaf with the back of the spoon.
• Return meatloaf to oven, and bake until the loaf is no longer pink inside and the glaze has baked onto the loaf, 30 to 40 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the loaf should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Cooking time will depend on shape and thickness of the meatloaf.

Steps:

• Combined pureed carrots, sugar, vinegar and salt in a 1-qt saucepan.
• Bring to a simmer over medium heat; reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 15 to 20 minutes until thickened and reduced to about 1 cup.
• Stir in butter, then remove mixture to large metal bowl and place in freezer for 10 minutes to quick chill (if using immediately).
