Honey Glazed Carrots, made with simple ingredients like butter, honey, and rosemary. Delicious side dish recipe, perfect for holidays or weeknight meals.
Honey Glazed Carrots are one of the easiest side dish recipes you'll ever make. I love when a dish has great flavor, and I also love when a dish is beautiful. Carrots are pretty all by themselves, but when you dress them up with a little rosemary, they're even prettier.
And my favorite thing about this recipe is it only takes 4 ingredients, one of which really could be optional. I say that because rosemary may not be to everyone's taste, and you could certainly make this recipe without the rosemary.
Whether you're creating an Easter menu or just making dinner for the family, Honey Glazed Carrots are a great addition to your meal… Not to mention a great way to get kids to eat their veggies. They pair really well with Roast Beef or Pork Chops.
