Sweetened Carrots are a very simple, go to, vegetable dish that kids love. With this recipe, leftovers are not an issue.
Ingredients
- 5 - 6 or more Carrots or 1 small bag of baby Carrots
- 1 - 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 - 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar
- Salt
Instructions
- Peel and slice carrots if necessary.
- Boil carrots in salted water until done. You just want to be able to pierce them with a fork, you do not want them mushy and falling apart.
- Drain water from the carrots, return pan and carrots back to the stove. Add about 1 - 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 -2 tablespoons of brown sugar. Stir occasionally as the butter melts and the sugar starts to dissolve. When everything is mixed together nicely, they are done. Adjust the amount of brown sugar you use to your own desired sweetness level. Serve.
Yum! I can see why he would like them so much!
