Brown sugar glaze for vegetables


Root vegetables like beets, turnips, and carrots are quite good with this warm sweet glaze.  Steam the vegetables first and then mix up the glaze. 

Brown Sugar Glaze for Root Vegetables

3 T brown sugar
2 T orange juice
1 T butter
Salt

3 c steamed root vegetables

Combine all the ingredients in a large non-stick skillet.  Cook and stir over medium-low heat until everything starts to bubble.  Stir in the vegetables and cook until they are fully coated.

I have been making this glaze for at least 30 years. My family loves fresh carrots with it. It is especially a holiday dinner must.
