Maple-Herb Roasted Carrots

A splash of real maple syrup turns ordinary carrots into sweet and savory culinary gold.

Roasted to golden perfection, these sweet and savory carrots are a perfect complement to either a hearty beef or poultry entrée or dished up with vegetarian fare like our Grilled Portobello Mushroom Steaks with Creamy Polenta.
