MAPLE GLAZED CARROTS
I garnished with a little sprig of oregano. I used it because it was already in my garden. Besides I can’t get over how beautiful the orange carrots and green oregano look together. I can’t help it. I’m all about color. If you don’t have oregano in your garden you can use any garnish you want.
These carrots are absolutely gorgeous and most tasty! They are perfect for Thanksgiving Dinner or next to your Christmas prime rib.
