RECIPE NOTES

• beyond the easy preparation, what makes this side dish special is that it’s great served at anytime. Enjoy the carrots warm alongside roasted chicken, meat or fish and it will be a delicious choice that rounds out the meal. They’re also great alongside some toasted bread. Or serve them at room temperature for a picnic-friendly choice 
• keep an eye on the carrots, as the sugars in the maple syrup can brown quickly
• you can leave the carrots whole or cut them in half
• instead of walnuts, use pumpkin seeds, pecans, pistachios or almonds
