Garlic and Lemon Carrots

A delight combination of sweet and savory made this easy side dish a sure winner. I made two substitutions to make this consistent with the WW Core program, both changes are common for me and work well here. Instead of sugar, I used Stevia and also replaced the margarine with ButterBuds sprinkled on after the carrots were cooked (just before adding the lemon juice. Loved the way the broth, garlic and shallots intermixed with the natural sweetness of the carrots and the citrus served a the perfect bond for the contrasting flavors. These will definitely be added to my busy night repertoire. Made for the "I recommend" Tag Game.

What a delicious recipe, so good and different from plain carrots, and quick and easy also. I didn't have shallots, but I did have some mild Vidalia onions and they worked well. Will make this again many times.

These are good! I only made 2 servings and I omitted the shallots. Nice combination of flavors. Sweet, savory, tart. It's nice to have another vegetable option. Thanks! I served these with corned beef.

Although these instructions provide perfectly cooked carrots, the flavour just wasn't what I thought it should be. I expected lots of taste but they just tasted like plain cooked carrots to me.

I used baby carrots for this because it's a lot easier. I liked the shallots and garlic with the carrots. But there was something I wasn't sure about. I'm not sure if it was the sugar or the lemon juice but it just didn't combine to taste the way I thought it might. Still, it was good and enjoyed by the family.
