I did adjust quantities to suit the two of us, and another time I would cut my carrots bigger, but the flavours were fabulous and I do like how I could pop them in the oven to cook while busy with other dishes, a fuss-free side!!! Thank you treehuggin', a lovely vegetable dish, much enjoyed, made for PAC Fall 2012
