Honey Roasted Garlic Carrots are a perfect side for a special meal. They will be on our Thanksgiving table this year. They are sweet and yet somewhat healthy.  

Even though they have garlic in them, they do not make your breath smell like garlic. Believe me I know garlic when I smell it. Even better, if you do not want garlic, go ahead and add 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar on your carrots.  They are great that way too.
