These glossy carrots, flavored with orange juice, cinnamon and ginger, are pretty enough for a special meal. To save time, you could substitute two 15-ounce cans of carrots for the fresh ones. —Helen Bethel, Maysville, North Carolina

This recipe is fantastic! My husband does not like carrots and he went back for seconds!

I made this in a dutch oven over a campfire for a cattle drive. Even the people that HATE vegetables couldn't stop eating them. Excellent recipe.

These are great, easy to make, and quick! My family loves these and they go great with fish, chicken, and other meals as well. You have most of the ingredients in your pantry, no need to spend a bunch for this recipe.
