Now you made me hungry!!! That sounds amazing Kevin! Thank you for sharing it with me. 💖
Lovely dish….
Thanks so much!
I’m not a huge carrot fan, but ah…butter makes everything better. 🙂 Seems like a tasty way to jazz things up. The spices sound like a great mix. I think I’ll try it. Thanks!
You’re very welcome Christine!
Know I’d love them. Rosemary and Thyme are my favourite herbs… Fresh or dried!
I use them all the time too. I grow them in the garden and can’t let any go to waste so I dehydrate them for winter.
You can also do this with fresh carrots Diane
Absolutely but then I would have to peel and slice them! 😂🤣😂
😎
Simple, yummy and healthy! Thanks for sharing, Diane!
Thanks Mel!!!! You’re welcome!
WoW I love the orange colour and I like carrots. Thank you for your recipe.
You’re welcome!!
Winter colored vegetables for vitamins 🙂 what a good idea – merci – amitiés 🙂
Yes so tasty…thank you!
I don’t think that carrots really get the use or respect they deserve. Remember the old joke, “you ever see a rabbit wearing glasses.” Well, it holds. More carrots mom…
Hahaha you’re aging yourself and me because yes I do remember that!
Look more inviting than plain carrots, that’s for sure!
Thank you Linda they were.
I was looking for a different carrot recipe to use at Easter dinner, thank you!
You’re welcome! This is even better if you have access to fresh herbs. I grow my own and dehydrate them for winter.
We love to honey glaze our carrots. My grandson’s favorite way to eat them other than fresh from the garden – lol.
Smart boy, who doesn’t love honey!!!! Do you have your own hives?
We have a deal with a Keeper from AZ. He uses our field(central location) to come up in the spring and distribute 600 colonies. He leaves one hive on our place. The rest through 8 counties. In tge fall they gather them all up, we get a free case of fresh raw honey and they head back home for winter.
That is awesome! I never knew anyone did that!
We have a great central spot and a close friend is partners with a guy from AZ. Every spring he comes up and sets up in our field. A couple of semi’s carrying over 600 colonies of bees sits on our property for 3 days. He brings in smaller trucks to move the colonies to about 8 different counties here in east/northeast Colorado. Its loads of fun every year watching them. I got to see a “swarm” up close and find out why, how, and how long it all happens. I garden and have bees resting on my arms/legs (the bee guy says they like human sweat?! haha). I have never been afraid of them and so love that they hang out here all summer long. In the late fall (before the deep frost) they will come and collect them all (just doing the reverse from spring) to head back to AZ for the winter. We get a HUGE case of fresh, raw honey for giving them a place to work from. We also have all the pollinating we can handle – LOL.
I am so jealous! What a great way to learn about Bees!
Thank you Jack! 🧡
I just started growing some. If you have any tips I would appreciate it!
We grew them years ago and never could get them to grow very big. The soil has to be fertile and turned very well. When you plant them, don’t plant them all at once. Continue planting more seeds about every 2-3 weeks until about mid summer. Good luck!
That sounds wonderful, Diane. I think the butter and herbs will provide a nice counterpoint to the sweetness of the carrots. Any suggestions for how long I should steam the carrots if I use raw ones?
It should only take 5-10 minutes once the steam starts depending on their size Tanja. Just test them with a fork.
That sounds good, Diane. Thank you for letting me know. 🥕
You’re very welcome!
I love them 😋😋
I love them any way they are cooked but not raw. 🧡
You make even carrots appealing!
Thank you they are so vibrant it is easy to do that! Thank you!!! 🧡
