AN EASY GLAZED CARROTS RECIPE
I don’t know about you but I’m a side dish kinda gal. I think that is what I love most about buffets and potlucks – all the side dish choices! I get positively giddy. I think I could fill an entire plate up with sides and be as happy as a clam. One of my favorites are these maple glazed carrots.
CAN I SUBSTITUTE THE MAPLE SYRUP?
Absolutely! You can use honey instead of maple syrup. You can use real maple syrup or the corn syrup kind found in grocery stores. Whatever your family loves and will eat!
