Carrot dip is a delicious, super healthy dip with crackers and veggies. This is a gluten-free, vegan, sugarfree, dairy-free and nut-free dip. This carrot dip is creamy, smooth and soft in texture, goes very well with any starters/appetizers or salad. You can also serve this dip as a spread in pita bread or pita chips, or veggie sticks or any crackers.
After making this creamy carrot dip I realized, we can make a pumpkin dip as well just by replacing it with pumpkin. Very easy to make dip with just a few ingredients. Just gather everything in the grinding jar and blend till you get a smooth creamy consistency.
- This dip is sugar-free, nut-free, vegan and gluten-free.
- You can store in the refrigerator for 4-5 days easily.
- Replace carrot with pumpkin to make pumpkin dip.
- Instead of boiling roast carrots in the oven at 180C or 350 F for 40-45 minutes or till you get brown edges. Oven roasting will enhance the sweetness in carrots and give a caramelized flavor in the dip.

This month we have mixed results from all family members. My youngest brother-in-law became a father to a baby boy and now we are "bade mummy and bade papa" (taiji or aunty), that's what is called at in-laws family which I am loving the most. Husband has got few certifications, my son getting a good result in school (most surprising thing again after Pune). My daughter turned three this November.
My son always says "mumma in school I give my personal best which I don't do at home" and now looks like this is the reason I don't believe in school's result. In all these happy moments we have some share of worries. My daughter caught some allergy or infection and we were treating her for cold and flu symptoms. After 2 days when things did not work out we went to the doc and got to know, it was an allergy. In my whole life, we never came across any allergy in our family. She is so irritated yet active, clingy, crying, dull, runny nose, watery eyes. Really heart sank on her birthday when she was not even able to open her eyes properly. Proper medication started and I wish her to get well soon.
