Creamed Carrots au Gratin

Recipe:
2 cups diced carrots
bread crumbs
butter
cheese
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp flour
1 cup hot milk
1/4 tspn salt
1/4 tspn pepper

Melt 2 tbsp butter over low heat. Add flour and blend. Stir milk in slowly. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until smooth and boiling. Cook carrots. Add milk sauce to carrots. Place in greased baking dish and cover with cheese and breadcrumbs. Dot with butter. Bake at 400 degrees F until crumbs are brown.



Difficulty: **

Changes I made:
I used round crinkle carrots because it's what I had

Thoughts:
Could definitely use more salt and pepper for my tatses, but otherwise I wouldn't change much about the recipe. It didn't specify what type of cheese to use so I used mozzarella, because it's what I have the most of, but cheddar would work well too.

Verdict:
Pretty good, I'd have it again. Not the healthiest side dish, though.
