Spiced Moroccan Carrots


1 1/2 lbs. baby carrots
1/4 c. olive oil
4 Tsp. lime juice
1/2 Tsp. cumin
1/2 Tsp. Cinnamon
1 Tsp. salt
3 Tbsp. frest parsley minced

Steam carrots until tender but not soft. Drain and cool slightly.

Whisk together oil, lime juice, spices and salt in a bowl. Add cooled carrots into the bowl. Stir in parsley when ready to eat. Can eat warm or room temp.

I didn't have parsley, but I made this last night anyway. Loved it! Next time, I may use a little less oil, just cause to my taste, but Ralph said it thought is was good as it was.

Randi:
Tomorrow night I'm going to make a variation of your recipe. Instead of zucchini, I'm going to use spaghetti squash. I think it should turn out to be OK, but then again, I can burn water.

What kind of cheese did you use? Cheddar?

[Randi]

Burn water... LOL! I bet you're a good cook!

I do wonder what spagetti squash are, I will do a search later. I can't remember what cheese the recipe said, but I probably used half normal and half Parmesan. Experiment!
