The addition of crisp bacon to the carrots gives a nice lightly smoked favor. It has been a favorite with my family for many years. It originated in the Treasury of Country Recipes published by Land O Lakes about 15 years ago. Even people who don't normally eat carrots love this dish! You can easily double the recipe for a potluck dish. If you want to decrease the fat, just substitute light margarine and turkey bacon. Ingredients:
3 cups carrots, sliced 1/2 inch (6 med) |
1/4 cup cooked crumbled bacon |
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine |
1 tablespoon firmly packed brown sugar |
2 tablespoons green onions, sliced 1/8 inch |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. In 2-qt saucepan place carrots; add enough water to cover.
2. Bring to a full boil.
3. Cook over medium heat until carrots are crisply tender (8-12 minutes).
4. Drain and return to pan.
5. Add remaining ingredients.
6. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through (5 minutes).
