I tried the mint version and I think it was the first time I have had carrots and mint together. I loved it. I steamed the carrots in my electric steamer instead of boiling. Then, I used low fat margarine and splenda and it still tasted really good. I served it with some steamed fish and the juices from the carrots were great with the fish. Made for PAC spring 2008. -
YUMMY! My boys couldn't wait for these to brown and ate them all up with no leftovers! I loved the addition of fresh thyme. Thanks for a recipe I will make again soon. -
So,so good! I made the thyme version to go with some leftover chicken for lunch. I used splenda in place of sugar with no problem. Very easy to do, I'm going to try the mint version come summer. Thank you mama for a lovely recipe. -
