How to Make Honey Balsamic-Glazed Carrots

Remember when you were growing up and your parents told you to eat your carrots to help you see at night? Well, they were right. Packed with vitamin A, these orange-colored root vegetables do aid in eye health.

To increase your carrot intake, we teamed with Nikki Baumel of My Sweet Belly to create a delicious honey balsamic-glazed recipe. “The most widely known benefit of carrots is that they are great for your eyes! That credit goes to the beta-carotene, which gives carrots their rich orange color and can help fight off damaging UV rays from the sun. You can think of these veggies as being somewhat of an internal sunscreen too,” Nikki shares.

Satisfaction and health guaranteed. Read on for the step-by-step instructions on how to make the healthy side dish.
