Best Honeyed Carrots With Citrus Basil Gremolata Recipes
LEMON-BASIL CARROTS
THIS IS one of my favorite ways to prepare carrots-simple but flavorful. I devised this recipe since we always seem to have carrots on hand, and the dish has drawn quite a few compliments. Sometimes I'll make extra and add them to my "soup jar" in the freezer-they make a great addition to a batch of homemade soup! -Donna Smith Palisade, Colorado

HONEY-GLAZED CARROTS WITH CARROT TOP GREMOLATA
Dark honeys, like buckwheat, bring a touch of earthy sweetness to these lightly glazed beauties. The gremolata, made with the frilly green carrot tops, make a delicious and pretty finishing touch while adding to your #wasteless repertoire. If bunched carrots with tops aren't available, use parsley for the gremolata instead.
