Glazed Carrots



A delicious versatile side-dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal, or add it to your holiday dinner menu.

Only 4 ingredients- what could be more simple?

Another food I have a hard time eating in moderation. (So, sue me ;)

YOU WILL NEED:
1 (16 ounce) package baby carrots
1/2 cup butter
3 tablespoons honey
1/2 cup brown sugar

Directions:

Place the carrots into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two.
Return the pot to the stove; reduce the heat to medium-low. Melt the butter in the pot. Stir in the honey and brown sugar; add the carrots and stir until evenly coated; cook another 5 minutes.

This makes a lot of juice, you may want to reduce the sauce just a bit, unless you're like me and know a good sauce when you taste one and choose just to savor the flavor!
