Buttery Cooked Carrots

Introduction:
Did you know that a carrot is actually a type of root?

Pre-peeled “baby” carrots (like the ones that this recipe calls for) actually cut from mature ones, often have a harmless white fuzz on their surface due to damaged outer cell layers that dehydrate within hours of processing.

Ingredients:

• 1 pound carrots (baby or regular sized) 
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/3 cup brown sugar

Steps:

• Cooks carrots in a large pot of boiling water until tender
• Drain out most of the liquid, but make sure to leave the bottom of the pan covered with water
• Set the carrots aside
• Stir in the butter and brown sugar into the water
• Simmer and stir until the butter melts
• Return the carrots to the pot, and toss to coat
• Cover and let sit for a few minutes to let the flavors mingle

Results: 

I absolutely hated this recipe.  Never again will I add sugar to my vegetables!!! Too sweet.
