    It all sounds so delicious. Would you be willing to share your recipe for Orange Ginger Glazed Carrots? Sounds like something I would love.

    Thanks! Here it is, courtesy of Southern Living :)**

    1 (1-lb.) package baby carrots, thoroughly washed
    1 teaspoon grated orange rind
    1/4 cup fresh orange juice
    2 teaspoons butter
    2 teaspoons honey
    1 to 3 tsp. freshly grated ginger*
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon pepper

    Stir together all ingredients and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium heat, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 30 to 35 minutes or until liquid evaporates and carrots are glazed.

    *1 tsp ground ginger may be substituted
    ** I’m a big fan of pressure cooking vegetables (shorter cooking time, more nutrients), so if I find a way to adapt the recipe, I’ll post. 🙂
