Glazed Carrots

Talk about easy & delicious! This wonderful side dish recipe came from Pete’s mom. As a kid, he had “issues” with some vegetables so his mom added a little something extra to the carrots she would often make for family dinner. The result…Pete loved his carrots and we’re pretty sure your kids and family will too!
