I needed a quick and easy side dish for Thanksgiving that didn't require oven use so I tested this recipe out on daughter. It definitely passed because she had seconds!




One of the easiest veggies to make...

I saw this on tv today and had to try them when I saw that I had a 1 pound bag of baby carrots on hand. I wasn't even following the recipe, but just followed what she did on the show. I just put a dab of water in the pan with plenty of salt and pepper. I knew that they cooked for 7 minutes, so when it was down to just 3 more minutes, I also dumped in a bag of sugar snap peas, added just a little more water and continued cooking until it was done. WOW. It was amazing. And I didn't even put on any parsley or anything. (Didn't forget the butter though!) You are left with tender veggies, not drowning in water and they are wonderfully seasoned with the salt and pepper. Butter is like the cherry on top of a Sunday. PERFECT. Thanks Ina!




delicious

These carrots were delicious. I used organic peeled baby carrots and used the idea that another reviewer gave and added sugar snap peas. My husband who "hates" carrots had thirds. Thanks Ina




Simple and tasty

This was a very easy side dish that has great flavor! I would definitely recommend using dill over parsley.

Best Carrots Ever

I always dread carrots as "the vegetable", not because I hate them but because they're never anything special. This recipe changed my mind. Incredibly easy to make. I couldn't stop eating the carrots. Simply awesome.




Great & Easy Carrots!

This recipe is easy and delicious. It can be partially prepared in advance which makes it great for dinner guests. It looks beautiful on the plate too!

Just delicious. I had 12 people for a BBQ, had churrasco, rice with onions (rice is a must in a Puertorrican dinner), fresh stream beans, fresh asparagus, lettuce and tomato salad and the carrots....Everybody asked for the recipe....They are sabrosos.

After tossing it in the melted butter I added one packet of Splenda and then the parsley. Wow....this really made the carrots come alive. My mother used regular sugar in a similar recipe so either way...this is a keeper.




I didn't know carrots could taste this good!

I had too many carrots and wanted to use them up. This was so delicious. I happen to have on hand fresh dill and it made the carrots so tasty. I will definetly make this recipe again. Simple, delicious, and healthy.




Pretty good

I used fresh parsley instead of the dill. I'm not a fan of carrots, but eating it this way wasn't bad. My husband said he liked it!




Couldn't Be Easier!

These carrots are a fresh, simple, and very tasty dish. Slicing the carrots on the diagonal gives them an up-scale look and also allows for a larger saute surface. We all really enjoyed them.

These are the BEST. THE GREATEST. So So So so easy to make, and so dog gone good. I even made these for a tailgate party and my hard core football buddies went nuts and said they were the best. Of course, I grow my own parsley, but I couldn't give a better recommendation.
