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

I used 2 lbs. baby carrots and doubled the other ingredients here. Very delicious, sweet and good carrot taste.

This was quick and easy, as well as much tastier than plain cooked carrots. Ingredients are those already on hand. Hubby enjoyed them very much. I followed the recipe exactly, except that I cooked the carrots first and then made the sauce and poured over them and heated for a minute or two.

These are so good. I cut my carrots in strips & cooked this in the oven.

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.
