Honeyed Carrots with Citrus-Basil Gremolata image

I love the scent of fresh basil. It's even better when paired with fresh citrus peel! In this recipe, the carrots are sweetened with a touch of honey, then topped with a lively citrus-basil gremolata. -Naylet LaRochelle, Miami, Florida

I'm not a big fan of carrots, but I actually really enjoyed this recipe. The honey and citrus flavors were a great combination.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover carrots. I had a bunch of carrots that were starting to go bad, and this recipe was the perfect way to use them up.

I didn't have any basil on hand, so I used parsley instead. It was still delicious!

The carrots were a little too sweet for my taste, but the gremolata helped to balance out the flavors. Overall, it was a good recipe.
