Maple Glazed Carrots

Everything tastes better coated in sugar!  Right?  My kids certainly think that cooked carrots taste better that way.  This is our favorite way to prepare them!

2 pounds carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
4 tbsp. butter
3 tbsp. maple syrup
2 tbsp. brown sugar
1 tbsp. fresh parsley or you can use dried

Use a steamer to cook sliced carrots until tender.  Drain water and return carrots to pan.  Add butter and stir gently until melted.  Add brown sugar, syrup and parsley and saute gently for 2-3 min.  Add salt and pepper to taste.  Be amazed at how fast these carrots disappear from your dinner table!
