Today my family is going to a get-together, but I have to work. It’s okay. I probably could have (should have) asked off, but it’s really not a convenient time for our staff for me to do that.
I had to get some things together for my hubby to take to the get-together. I made some candied carrots. My own recipe.
Candied Carrots
- 5 pounds carrots, peeled and sliced diagonally
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tsp ground ginger
- 4 tsp ground sea salt
- 3-4 TBSP coconut oil
Heat coconut oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Mix cut-up carrots in mixing bowl with all other ingredients to coat well. Add to hot oil and stir well. Turn heat down to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until carrots are tender — can easily insert a fork. Do not overcook. Remove from heat.
I think the carrots turned out really well.
For desserts, I just bought some things from Whole Foods. One is a Chocolate Peanut Butter Cream Cake by Just Desserts.
The other is a chocolate pecan pie from Whole Foods.
I think they’ll do fine.
Happy Saturday!! Enjoy your family!!

The carrots look yummy! We had cooked carrots the other night and I was thinking I wished I’d taken the time to “candy” them… your recipe looks great! I hope your evening at work went well.
Hey Emily!
This week has been good. Busy, but good. The carrots did turn out good.

I’m looking forward to trying this. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
