Honey Lemon Carrots

Based on 1 review

A great side dish for just about any meal. Ready in a flash and the kids will love it too.

Ingredients:

1 lb carrots, peeled, thinly sliced into coins
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
1 Tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons honey
1/2 teaspoons lemon zest, grated
2 Tablespoons butter

Directions

Place carrots in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover saucepan and steam 7-8 min or until carrots are tender. Transfer carrots to a bowl. Toss with remaining ingredients. Salt and pepper to taste.

Paula’s grandmother’s note: Omit the cilantro and lemon zest and place in a blender to puree for a great baby food!

One word "yummy!" I cooked this for my family with "Paula’s Baked Ham and Cheese Chicken" and it was the perfect side dish. The pairing of lemon and honey is wonderful and it's so easy to make. My family loved the recipe so much that it beat out my own mothers carrot recipe.
