There are a few facts from my cooking past...here they are in no particular order - NO JUDGEMENT ZONE HERE
1. Rice a Roni, this is a healthy dinner...and considered real cooking
2. Ranch is good on EVERYTHING...ok this still rings true
3. Carrots are for rabbits, or need to be adequately coated in ranch (reference # 2)
There are many more rules I lived by - those are just a few.
I have since reversed my standing on the whole rabbit carrot thing, depending on if the rabbits care to share.
INGREDIENTS
8 Carrots, skinned and sliced
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbs butter, melted
2 tbs brown sugar
1/8 tsp Chinese 5 star spice (go light, it is mighty powerful)
DIRECTIONS
Pre-heat oven to 400.
Place carrots in a foil lined baking pan and toss with olive oil.
Add brown sugar & 5 star spice to melted butter, toss with the carrots. Bake for 30-45 minutes, or until fork tender.
I ate mine plain and added them into a chicken wrap I had for dinner!

Isn't Mae West a hoot? What a great quote to start off a great post! I love carrots, especially during the fall months, and a little bit of sugar always helps them go down even quicker! I love the spice in this dish too!
5-spice! Now you are talking! I love the recipe!
What a great side...and perfectly fall, too!
I love carrots because they are so flavorful that you don't need to add much to make them delicious. Roasted carrots are the best!
I think my comment was lost in cyberspace. I just wanted you to know I really like your carrot recipe. The 5 spice powder makes it a standout. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary
