I made these last night and served with a pot roast. What a nice combo! I followed your instructions exactly, but I did add some white shredded cheddar at the end. Thank you for such precise directions. This dish is a definite change from just cooking steamed carrots. Thank you for sharing such a great recipe, Peggy Lynn! --Marla1Replies 1
