Ingredients
-
2 pounds of carrots, sliced
1/2 yellow onion
1 1/4 cups of monterey jack shredded cheese
2 tbs. canola oil
1/4 cup fat free evaporate milk
1 cup Panko bread crumbs
3 tbs. ground sage
1 tbs. fresh ground black pepper
Non-fat cooking spray
salt if desired
Directions
Makes approximately 6 1-cup servings
Wash a slice the carrots then boil until easily pierced with a fork (~20 min)
Sautee the onion, black pepper and sage in the canola oil until the onions are starting to turn transparent and limp (5 minutes).
In a large bowl, combine the evaporate milk and carrots and start to mash the carrots by hand. When the large pieces are broken up, you can switch to using an electric mixer. Mix the carrots and milk until you are satisfied with the consistency (I like mine lumpy and slightly mashed).
Mix in the onion-spice mixture and the cheese.
Spread in a 12" glass pie pan (or square metal dish) and top with the Panko bread crumbs.
Spray quickly with some non-fat cooking spray.
Bake in 450 degree oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until crust is browned.
