I did not puree the carrots as directed in the original recipe b/c my blender is broken. I just boiled diced carrots in salted water and then layered them over the beef layer. They were delicious.
Its a little labor intensive, but totally worth the your efforts. Go ahead an double the recipe and make a couple of Pyrex dishes to freeze for the future!
