One of my PAC picks Spring 2007. I didn't find these pickled carrots as pickled as I would have liked them to be. I used a baby Vidalia onion in place of the green onion but that shouldn't have affected the recipe all that much. I found they tasted strongly of olive oil and when I make these again I'll tip the scales on the vinegar side. Thanks, bmxmomto4, this was a good choice for me and I'll be making more of these.

Woohoo! Carrots that THE PICKY ONE loves!!! I used rasperry vinegar & a few extra scallions. ;) THE PICKY ONE ate the onions & drank the juice. NO KIDDING. Just don't boil the carrots too long because they will soften up in the marinade. These were perfect & will appear regularly. I made this for PAC 9/06. Thanks, bmxmomto4!
