History

  • 2025-05-09 – I know I’ve made this before but have failed to record it here. This is a very good recipe when making a roast. It makes enough that we can have a good meal of leftovers. Since some of the carrots were fatter than others, next time I think I’ll cut these in half so cooking is a little more even.
