  1. These are so good! They kind of remind me of sweet potato fries. Everyone loved them! Next time I just need to make more (I didn’t quite have 10 carrots, plus they were kind of small).

  2. I just used this recipe as one of the sides for our Thanksgiving dinner, and they were a hit! My husband loved them, and fortunately for the rest of us, I made plenty for him to have two big servings. This is definitely a better way to enjoy cooked carrots!
