"The original recipe, which my mother acquired over 45 years ago, called for two bunches of small carrots so I had to guess how much to use. I eventually got the recipe amounts worked out to my liking," says Beverly Christofferson of Sioux City, Iowa.

This is a simple but delicious dish. I love the way the carrots caramelize in the butter and brown sugar. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a huge fan of carrots, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sweetness of the carrots was perfectly balanced by the herbs. I would definitely make this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover carrots. I had some that were starting to get a little limp, and this dish gave them a new life. They turned out crispy and flavorful.
