And when I say, “super easy”… I mean it’s completely ridiculously easy. Baby carrots are boiled in water until softened. Then the water is drained and the carrots are set aside. You’ll add jellied cranberry sauce, butter, brown sugar, lemon juice and salt to the hot pan. That’s it! The cranberry sauce will melt with the heat and blend with the butter and other ingredients to create a sweet sauce.
The carrots are added back to the pan and then you just toss until they’re coated with the sauce. Did you ever imagine that carrots could be addicting? Well… they are with this sauce on it! Ho-Hum carrots are transformed into sweet things that are worth eating. Yum!
I love this side dish for a fall holiday meal, and it’s also good for a weeknight dinner too. These Glazed Cranberry Carrots are sure to be a big hit!
