Carrots are my husbands favourite vegetable and this is now his favourite treatment of them. I would give it a 5 if only for the ease and speed of preparation - that they taste awesome too makes this dish a winner! Made for Susie's World Tour -
Quick, easy, tasty - my kind of side dish! I've never used orange zest in my glazed carrots and I think I would add more next time because I couldn't really taste it. I cooked the carrots for a total of 3-4 minutes and it was just right. Thanks Miami J! -
We really enjoyed the carrots prepared this way. Awesome flavor, tender crisp and delicious. I'll be using this recipe again. Thanks so much for sharing. Made for Down Home Cooking -

I began cooking as a kid with my mom. I cook mostly Mexican food, but my best recipes are the ones that I improvise at the last minute! Especially desserts, which I love to cook, but always forget to write down.
I'm a stay at home mom of three kids- 2 boys (3 & 5years old) and a 1 year old baby girl. My husband and I have been married for nearly 8 years.
I want to take a moment to thank all of you who have made my recipes and even took the time to review and/or photograph them. I appreciate every one of them!
