Nice carrots. I nuked mine for about 6 minutes and let them 'steam' for another 5 minutes or so. Nice flavor but next time I'll thicken the sauce up a little bit. Thanks for sharing. Made for Cookbook Tag.

I like dijon with most things, so thought I'd give this a try. Unfortunately, no one here liked them.

This was very good and so easy! I cooked the carrots with about 1 Tbs of water in the microwave for about 9 minutes (stirring every 3 minutes) and then made the sauce. For us, this needed more than a pinch of salt and pepper. A nice weeknight dinner vegetable! Thank you!

I don't really care for sweet glazes on veggies, but this one was a good compromise, as the Dijon keeps it from being too sweet, and the brown sugar keeps it sweet enough that my husband will eat fresh steamed carrots. I'm not sure that makes any sense to anyone else, but I can't think of how else to phrase it... But anyway, it's a keeper and I'll make it again! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
