Recipe by Abby Girl

A nice, fresh way to prepare carrots. Weight Watcher 2 points Crockpot version: I have made this ahead of time and put them in the crockpot just to heat up. If you plan on doing it this way, have the carrots a bit under cooked. They take roughly 3/4 - 1 hour to heat up (depending on crockpot)
