So what is everyone doing for Mother's Day? My parents are coming for dinner and my brother and his wife are coming to town to help in the celebration. I am making my Pork Wellington Recipe. It is such a pretty presentation and I want to make the day special. On the side I am serving mashed carrots with Gorgonzola. This is a to die for side dish. We have friends whose son used to own a very lovely restaurant in Ithaca, NY. A bunch of us went there for dinner and he did a chef's tasting for us. This was one of the sides and I have made it ever since. It is so easy!Gorgonzola Carrots
Cook the carrots until soft. Put them in the food processor along with some crumbled Gorgonzola cheese, unsalted butter, salt and white pepper. Process them and serve. All of this is done to taste. They are very rich, but soooo delicious. And what a fabulous way to get that beta carotene! Not exactly a diet dish!!
