Caramelized Carrots

A simple side dish put together in a jiffy. That's what this dish is about. Everyone knows the benefits of carrots which is rich in vitamins and mineral with beta-carotene's. Remember when mom used to make us eat saying our eyes will have good sight even in older age. I love munching on the baby carrots. This is one of those vegetables that stays put for many days without going bad in the refrigerator.
