Reviews of Stir-Fried Carrots with Orange
December 30 2014 My kids aren't big on carrots and I've been trying for ages to find a recipe that will change their minds. They loved these, so I guess I can cross that off the 'things to do' list!!. I thought they were great too! I have people eating cooked carrots now that never would before. Don't change anything - it's perfect as it is. JadynJ (1 review) |
February 04 2013 Oh my goodness, was this fantastic. I can honestly say it was one of the best recipes I've made from here and such a simple one. I didn't have an orange, but I had some concentrate so used that. Every single carrot was just beautifully covered in this thick glaze. I will always use this recipe!! Thanks nadine (1 review) |
What To Eat Tonight
The main course is often the easiest to plan but, when entertaining, what do you use as a starter course? Here are some great choices.
Not everything is right for freezing. Some foods, however, just beg to go into the freezer waiting for that moment when you need them most!
Burgers are so versatile. They can be made from almost any type of meat and they can be accompanied by a whole range of goodies.
Other Vegetables Recipes
Frying mushrooms gives a far better result than grilling them. Grilling often leaves them dry and 'withered' so it's not a method I recommend.
Cheesy Mushroom and Broccoli Casserole is one of those lunchtime delights that leave you diving for a second helping.
Sweet Potato & Spinach Bake is a fairly substantial comfort food on a budget. It's fully vegetarian but if you are a meat-eater, just add a lamb chop!
