This creamy, cheesy, savory carrot casserole is extra easy to prepare! It combines four simple ingredients: sliced carrot rounds, a can of cream of mushroom soup, shredded cheddar cheese and store-bought herbed stuffing mix. Bake until brown-edged and bubbling, and serve as a tasty side dish. It’s fancy enough for your holiday table and simple enough for dinner tonight.

Carrot Casserole Recipe

One of my favorite ways to use our garden carrots is in this cheesy carrot casserole recipe. All you need is 5 ingredients and about 25 minutes and it’s ready to be served.

This carrot casserole with stuffing is one of our favorite go-to side dishes (or sometimes a main dish served with crusty bread!)! And it’s always on our Thanksgiving dinner menu!

I’m so glad I found this! My great-aunt always brought a savory carrot casserole to Thanksgivings, but never got the recipe. I’ve regretted that ever since I moved out of state 8 years ago. But I found your recipe and this is it! It’s exactly as delicious as I remember.

Although lots of carrot casseroles are sweet, this one is savory, thanks to the cream of mushroom soup, shredded cheese and buttery stuffing. It’s perfect to serve next to chicken, pork chops and turkey!

Cheesy carrot casserole ingredients

Here’s the ingredients you need to make this carrot casserole with stuffing, you might already have everything in your kitchen!

How to Make Carrot Casserole

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add carrots and cook until a fork can slide through. Make sure not to overcook the carrots as you don’t want them to be mushy! Drain and add carrots back into the pot.

Tips For Carrot Casserole:

  • Cut the carrots into uniformly-sized pieces, so that they cook at the same rate.
  • You can cut and peel your carrots up to 3 days before you plan to make this recipe.
  • You could make this recipe even more fancy for the holidays by using some rainbow colored carrots in shades of purple, yellow, red and white. You can find rainbow carrots in most grocery stores these days or try growing your own.
  • You can cut the recipe in half and bake in an 8×8 dish.  If doing this, still use the whole can of cream of mushroom soup.
