For the Carrot “Pumpkin” Coins with Ranch

Ingredients

  • 4 whole long carrots (the bigger in diameter the better)
  • Compatible ranch (like Tessemaes or Primal Kitchen) or homemade recipe below

For the 5 minute Whole30 ranch

  • 1 cup compatible mayo
  • 3/4 cup full-fat canned compatible coconut milk
  • 2-3 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 teaspoond apple cider vinegar

Instructions

For the 5 minute Whole30 ranch

  • Combine all ranch ingredients in a bowl or blender and whisk or blend until combined. Add additional coconut milk to thin out as needed.

For the Carrot Pumpkin coins

  • TO make the pumpkin coins, peel carrots and cut off end.
  • AT the fat end of the carrot, holding lengthwise so you see the diameter of the carrot, cut a half a centimeter slit in the top of the carrot towards the middle of the carrot. Repeat a half a centimeter away, creating the beginnings of the “stem” of the pumpkin.
  • CUT a slit perpendicular to the stem slits on each side to cut away or carve out the stem. Discard the carrot scraps you just cut out. You should see a rough pumpkin shape now when looking at the diameter of the carrot (see photo). Round out edges as needed with the knife.
  • ONCE pumpkin shape is created, slice carrot into coins, creating mini pumpkin carrot coins. Serve with ranch and enjoy making veggies so fun and festive!
