I used regular carrots cut on a bias instead of the baby cut ones. It worked great & I loved this recipe. I wanted to add a little flavor to what can otherwise be a boring vegetable but w/o making it unhealthy. It is after all a vegetable. Great recipe! Read More

These do not last long when I make them! Great way to get your carrots in! My 1 yr old 2 yr old husband & myself eat 'em up. I let them cook just a tad little longer so they will be tender enough for the young kids. Read More

These carrots are so easy to put together and they are great for adding color to a meal. Sometimes I sub a little bit of orange juice for the lemon juice. A little orange or lemon zest also adds just a bit of zing to complement the sweet honey. Read More
