Directions
Lemon Glazed Baby Carrots, Carrots can be quick and easy to prepare when you combine traditional cooking methods with the ease of the microwave This recipe is adapted from America’s Everyday Diabetes Cookbook , I was looking for a good and diabetic way to use baby carrots up–I started off with such noble thoughts of raw carrots, but I found this, and fixed them with fresh orange instead of lemon juice and zest–it came out to about half an orange (with a little-about half to a full teaspoon- pulp, taken while I juiced the orange) in it It was a really tasty way to fix cooked carrots, without all the added sugar and fat (I also used the spray butter instead of butter or margarine-twenty squirts for the whole thing ) I will be much more likely to enjoy carrots with my meal with these carrots on hand, already cooked!, I was looking for a good and diabetic way to use baby carrots up–I started off with such noble thoughts of raw carrots, but I found this, and fixed them with fresh orange instead of lemon juice and zest–it came out to about half an orange (with a little-about half to a full teaspoon- pulp, taken while I juiced the orange) in it It was a really tasty way to fix cooked carrots, without all the added sugar and fat (I also used the spray butter instead of butter or margarine-twenty squirts for the whole thing ) I will be much more likely to enjoy carrots with my meal with these carrots on hand, already cooked!
