hmmmm
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

My grandmother used to make these and I loved them! But this recipe is way to oily. I liked the taste but couldn't get over... the feeling that every time I took a bite I was getting a big bite of oil with it. Paula was right about them lasting a long time in the fridge, mine were there for 2 weeks before I threw them out. : )Read more

Copper Pennies Carrots
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I found this recipe in a country Church cookbook published in 1982. I am sure it was very popular at covered dish suppers. ... I made the recipe and everyone loved it; however, I didn't really see the purpose of the oil so the next time I made it a left the oil out completely. The only thing missing was about 1600 calories. It made this a relatively low calorie side dish. Read more

Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My husband loves this recipe canned.... I first did this after pulling all my carrots from the garden and using this recipe... instead of adding water and the result was fantastic... A added plus is that i used my own (garden) made tomatoe sause... Thank you for all the wonderful down to earth recipies Read more

Nice change of pace
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

We like this recipe because it was a little unusual. It was tasty and a nice change from the normal side dishes. Both my... husband and I thought however that we would have prefered the carrots raw.Read more
