Day 179: Carrots with Honey & Vinegar ♥
Isn't there a children's rhyme about honey and vinegar? Something's nagging the back of my brain ... No matter, this is a great weeknight supper recipe! Invest a few minutes up front (and do take the couple of minutes to peel real carrots -- the prepeeled ones from bags just have no flavor when cooked) and then the carrots almost cook on their own while you work on whatever else's on the menu. The inspiration for these came from -- get this! -- a little recipe booklet hanging off a vinegar bottle. It's been hanging around for a few weeks. Tonight I put my foot down and said, Cook 'em or throw it away. It was worth the wait! Find other carrot recipes in the Recipe Box .
