These Honey Glazed Carrots are a simple side dish to serve for any meal. They make a great holiday recipe for Thanksgiving or any family holiday.

Lately, my mind has been lingering on Thanksgiving food. More specifically, planning the perfect Thanksgiving menu. Thanksgiving is all about the delicious food we gather around to enjoy and give thanks for.

For many of us, serving a turkey is a given and the way to really change things up is on Thanksgiving is to make a variety of sides for all to enjoy. Carefully timing and finding space on the stove or oven during any holiday is premium real estate.

How To Make Glazed Carrots

So if you are worried about securing the premium real estate space on your stove, this tasty recipe is a real game changer. Convincing someone to wash all the pots and pans is a whole other story.

It’s all about balance on Thanksgiving. While some like to stack up the turkey or go heavy on the sides on their plate, I like to balance my plate portions so there is an equal amount of each dish involved. I guess you can call me an equal opportunity eater. 

Honey Glazed Carrots are sweet and tender. The brown sugar and honey glaze bring out their sweetness but in a subtle way. And it’s a double bonus that this recipe only takes about 15 minutes to prepare. How is that for a quick side dish!
