GLAZED BABY CARROTS WITH THYME
This is adapted from one of Canadian LIving's Best Recipes Ever. It is a lot faster to make than some of the slow cooked glazed carrot recipes. We had these for dinner one night with rice, peas and sweet & sour ribs. They would be great to serve dinner guests. They will think you spent ages working on the dish, when in reality you only need to stir them several times near the end of cooking. If you have children who will look at the carrots & say "What are those funny leaves in there? I AM NOT EATING THAT" just leave the thyme out. You could use dried thyme leaves or ground thyme if you want to, just reduce the amount to about 1/2 tsp ground, or 3/4 - 1 tsp dried leaves. I think this would be great with some lemon thyme in the summer. If you use fresh thyme, garnish your serving dish with a whole sprig of thyme. I hope you enjoy them.

[email protected]Not bad, but not great. The carrots were a bit too firm for my liking, and the glaze was a bit bland. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some honey or maple syrup to the glaze.

[email protected]So easy and delicious! I used a combination of rainbow and purple carrots, and they looked so pretty on the plate. The glaze was perfectly balanced, not too sweet and not too tangy. My family loved them.

[email protected]These glazed baby carrots with thyme were a delightful side dish! The carrots were perfectly tender and the glaze was flavorful and aromatic. The thyme added a subtle but noticeable depth of flavor. I will definitely be making this recipe again.
