"I got this recipe for maple/orange carrots from a friend of mine, Elise at Simply Recipes. I loved the flavor combo, with its touch of cinnamon, just reading the recipe. So I made it for Thanksgiving dinner where it was a huge hit. There's no reason not to eat these year round, but I think they make a particularly festive side dish for Thanksgiving or Christmas and are a great substitute for sweet potatoes.
