I enjoy glazed carrots and making them with different flavor variations. And pride myself on a true glaze that coats and clings to them.
This time around I added another favorite veggie, beets. The somewhat earthy flavor of beets makes a great combination with the natural light sweetness of carrots.
I decided to go with a sweet and sour glaze flavored with orange juice to bring everything together nicely. Also to add that little bit of tanginess as a contrast.
We really enjoyed these and I hope you do, too!
