    Cooked carrots ... does that conjure bad memories of school cafeterias and lunch ladies? I have to admit that I was not a fan as a kid.

    My mom cooked them frequently, usually as part of a roast. Both my parents loved them, but I refused to touch any carrot that wasn't raw and covered in dip!

    Thankfully, my taste buds have matured, and now I love carrots, too. I think the key is all in how they are cooked ... no canned carrots for me, thank you very much.

    These Dijon-Brown Sugar Glazed Carrots are my favorite way to eat them, and I know you're going to love this recipe, too!
