California Orange Carrots image

I found it very difficult to get children (and even my "big kid") to eat carrots. By adding an orange and serving carrots crisp-tender, I have found that my family is very receptive to this vegetable dish.

I'm not a big fan of carrots, but these were actually really good! The orange glaze was sweet and tangy, and the carrots were perfectly cooked.

This recipe was easy to follow and the carrots turned out delicious! I served them with roasted chicken and they were a perfect complement.

These carrots were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less orange juice next time.

These carrots were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some herbs or spices next time.
