CARROT AND RUTABAGA PUREE
This is one of my daughter's favorite foods. Carrot and rutabaga really complement each other's flavors. If I double this, I try to buy small rutabagas because they are easier to cut into chunks. I have had this recipe for many years and I believe it came from either Gourmet or Bon Appetit. I am just guessing on the preparation time.

- Drain cooked vegetables in a colander then put them into a 2-quart casserole or a 9x13-inch pan.

- Remove foil and broil for about 5 minutes or until the cheese is browned to your preference.
- Serve and enjoy!
- Notes: Rutabagas"resemble a large turnip and are coated with wax to help preserve them; it is a bit of an effort to cut and peel them, but is well worth it"- leftovers from this dish taste great reheated!

Tips:
- Select firm, unblemished rutabagas and carrots. Fresh vegetables will ensure the best flavor and texture in your puffs.
- Use a food processor to quickly and easily grate the vegetables. This will save you time and effort, and it will also ensure that the vegetables are grated evenly.
- Be sure to squeeze out the excess moisture from the grated vegetables. This will help to prevent the puffs from becoming too soggy.
- Use a large bowl to mix the ingredients for the filling. This will give you plenty of room to work and ensure that all of the ingredients are evenly combined.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the dough tough and chewy. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. This will help to ensure that the puffs are all the same size and shape.
- Bake the puffs until they are golden brown. This will usually take about 20-25 minutes.
- Serve the puffs warm or at room temperature. They can be enjoyed on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce.
