Easy Carrots

Ingredients

  • 1 pound carrots, peeled and sliced into rounds
  • 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
  • Salt

Directions

  1. Peel and trim the ends of the carrots.
  2. Slice into rounds of equal thickness, about 1/4-inch thick.
  3. Place a medium skillet over medium heat. Melt the butter (or warm the oil). Add the carrots and stir to coat.
  4. Cook, covered, for 8-10 minutes, or until soft when poked with a fork.
  5. Remove the cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for an additional 2 minutes to let any excess water evaporate.
  6. Sprinkle with salt and serve.

NOTE:  Make this recipe even more fun by using a pound of rainbow carrots. They come in colors purple, yellow, and sometimes red.
