Cinnamon Honey Mashed Carrots

I admit, I’m a sucker for the Cinnamon-Honey flavor combination, especially mixed with sweet potatoes.  But, honestly, these mashed carrots are giving my mashed sweet potatoes a run for their money this time around!

Even though they’re much lighter is both density and texture (and lower in calories) than mashed sweet potatoes, they’re SO full of flavor that it doesn’t even matter.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I did… do you have any favorite flavor combinations?  Did you try this recipe out yet?  If so, let me know in the comments below!
