Introduction

Adjust the amount of ginger to your taste, or you can use finely minced fresh ginger. Use could also substitute Splenda brown sugar (I've done this for my diabetic dad). This is an easy side, but special enough for guests - I've even made it for Thanksgiving dinner. Adjust the amount of ginger to your taste, or you can use finely minced fresh ginger.

    O.K.
    I wasn't a fan of these but my husband really liked them. He said to use less ginger next time though. - 2/28/12

    Incredible!
    Very good! I will definitely make again. They were a little sweet for me (probably because I've gotten used to eating plain carrots!) so I may cut back on the brown sugar a bit next time. - 6/17/10
