To get my son to eat veggies, I mix and match flavors and spices. My slow-cooker carrots with orange and cinnamon won him over.
ingredient
- 2 pounds medium carrots or baby carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons butter

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 4 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup cold water
Directions
- In a 3-qt. slow cooker, combine the first 7 ingredients. Cook, covered, on low until carrots are tender, 4-5 hours.
