Great recipe. I added some moist prunes to the pot and let my 11 year old prepare. It was her addition to the Rosh Hashannah dinner table.

These were real good and easy ro make. I did not have any problems with the liquid content. Between the honey and golden rasins, I found the dish to be a little sweeter than I would of liked. Maybe regular rasins or the cranberries Barb used would be a great addition. I will give it 4 stars, but would of liked to of had a 4 1/2 star option.

These are very tasty, I also added some dried cranberries. I belive that the amount of liquid was left out of the recipe. I used just enough water to cover the carrots. I think you could use apple juice. I will be making this again.
