Candy.
My husband doesn’t eat carrots. He doesn’t like them raw. Not cooked. Picks them out of his teriyaki chicken and shrimp at the local hibachi grill.
The only chance I had to slide this one past him was to use Trader Joe’s Carrots of many colors. He thinks carrots are orange. And cut them on a diagonal. Carrots are round right? It’s not that he’s against trying new things. He’s eaten food on my whim that I didn’t even like. He just doesn’t like carrots.
After he finished eating them I glanced over and said how were those? He cut his eyes at me “good”. I said you ate them all, do you know what it was? “Don’t tell me”.
Honey Ginger Carrots (5 each approximately 1/2 cup servings): 2 WW Smart Points / 2 Points Plus
Ingredients:
- 3 cups Carrots sliced on the diagonal (I used Trader Joe’s Carrots of many Colors)
- 1 Tbsp Toasted Sesame Oil
- 1 Tbsp honey
- 1 Tbsp Spice World Squeeze Ginger
- 1 tsp Truvia Baking Blend
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Put everything but carrots into a quart size zipper storage bag. Knead together until blended. Add carrots, zip bag and kneed until the carrot slices are evenly coated. Spread coated carrot slices in a single layer on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25 minutes and check tenderness with a fork.
So remember my first word? Candy. These aren’t carrots….my husband doesn’t eat them.
