    "Nana" to Bubbe & Alex

    INGREDIENTS:
    4 1/2 cups sliced carrots
    2/3 cup crushed buttery round crackers
    3 tablespoons margarine, melted
    1/2 cup chopped onion
    3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1 1/2 cups milk
    2/3 cup processed American cheese, cubed

    DIRECTIONS:
    In a small bowl combine crushed crackers with 1 tablespoon
    melted margarine. Mix well and set aside. Preheat oven to 350
    degrees. Place carrots in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling
    water, and cover. Cook about 8 minutes until crisp-tender.
    Drain. In a medium skillet over low heat, heat the remaining
    2 tablespoons of margarine and sauté onions until tender.
    Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes,
    stirring to prevent browning. Gradually pour in milk,
    stirring constantly. Increase heat to medium and cook until
    bubbly and thickened. Add cheese and stir until smooth.
    Fold in carrots. Pour mixture into a 9x12 inch baking dish
    and sprinkle with the crumb mixture. Bake for 20 minutes,
    or until bubbly and golden brown.

    YIELD: 8-10 Servings
