I changed up the light brown sugar and used dark brown, much better flavor and far less sweet!
I also used the fresh parsley, but only about 1T. chopped just for garnish, and that was for 4 pounds of carrots or double the recipe!
Double the recipe fit perfect in my oval 2 1/2 quart crock pot for Thanksgiving, needless to say, there wasn't much leftover!
I was also asked by everyone for the recipe. This will be a staple for my dinner table as a side all of the time!
Thanks Sandra, I watch your show all the time, just to see if I can guess the color of your Kitchen-Aid mixer for that day, lol
