Cooked Carrots

This was our first time with carrots from our CSA.  I wanted to make cooked carrots without a ton of brown sugar and butter.  I found this recipe and altered it a little.  They were really easy to make and I liked them a lot.  Jeremy, on the other hand, was disappointed by their lack of sweetness.  I think he missed the brown sugar and butter he was used to.  I also have to admit that I over cooked the carrots a little so they were a bit mushy...but still good if you ask me :)
  • carrots
  • 3 chicken bullion cubes
  • salt
  • basil
  • 1 Tbs butter
  1. Wash carrots. and cut into slices.
  2. Boil water and allow bullion cubes to dissolve
  3. Cook carrots in boiling water 10-12 minutes (12 minutes was too long for my carrots)
  4. Drain carrots.  Mix in a bowl with butter, salt, and basil
