Brown Sugar Glazed Carrots

I really hesitate to post this. Is this a "no-duh" recipe? Or was it just super common in my family growing up? This is the only way we'd eat carrots. I love it! Sometimes my mom would add about 1 T. of orange juice concentrate for a tangy version. Yum!

I'll post it for a few reasons:

1) Even though it may seem like a no-brainer recipe to me, maybe it's new to you!

2) I love it.

3) It goes wonderfully with the chicken cordon bleu I just posted.

Enjoy!

2 c. sliced carrots

2 T. butter

1/3 c. brown sugar

Dash of salt

Place carrots in medium saucepan and cover with water. Bring water to boil and then reduce to medium and cook until carrots are soft-tender (not mushy!), about 10-15 minutes. Drain water and gently stir in butter and brown sugar until mixed thoroughly and carrots are coated evenly. Serve immediately.

Note: You can add about 1 T. orange juice concentrate for a tangy version of this.
