What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? A Second Helping of Glazed Carrots! My husband, Gerald, absolutely loves the texture of cooked carrots. He usually asks for more in every recipe. Unimpressed by their nutritional value, he could care less about the fiber content. Maybe it’s the bright orange color that echoed an enthusiastic response at the dinner table as a child. In any event, I know without a doubt, whenever I serve this appetizing choice of root vegetable, he knows it’s been a very special day.
GLAZED CARROTS
Ingredients:
16 ounces of fresh baby carrots, greens removed
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup light brown sugar, packed firmly
1 cup water
Dash of sea salt
Cracked pepper to taste
Instructions:
In a medium saucepan, combine the whole baby carrots with remaining ingredients. Stir well to blend. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and continue boiling uncovered for 20-25 minutes. Carrots should be tender and liquid evaporated to leave a nice glaze coating.
My wife is correct. There are never enough carrots, especially when she puts them in with a roast.

Carrots are so yummy! I love glazed carrots, but now I’m sugar free. And I don’t like to cook enough to fiddle around and try to figure out how to adapt to stevia sweetener. But, I’m sure it’s yummy! Looks good too!
