Best way to get children to eat carrots.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

These baked carrots are so good your kids will be asking for seconds. Baking the carrots in sugar, salt, cinnamon, and butter is a fantastic salty and sweet flavor combination. As it cooks, the sauce becomes a syrup and coats the carrots. Very simple to taste and everyone will love this side dish. Fantastic for a holiday dinner but easy enough to serve for a weeknight meal.
