Now if you know me, you might be thinking, “Lou doesn’t eat carrots!” While that is true, my family loves them. So when I saw this recipe for Crock Pot Sweet Tangy Carrots in Gooseberry Patch’s 101 Super-Easy Slow-Cooker Recipes, I thought I would be a good wife/mommy and make them up for them!

Crock Pot Sweet Tangy Carrots Notes:

Make sure you use high and not low…unless you need the recipe to take longer. I was sick, but had already bought the ingredients to make this recipe, so Michael put them on for me. Unfortunately, dear hubs read the directions wrong and put it on low instead of high, so I can attest that this recipe will work on high or low….low is just going to take longer.
These Crock Pot Sweet and Tangy Carrots are a great way to convince your kiddos to eat their veggies too. The sweet and tangy togetheris the perfect combo to entice anyone to try their carrots.
This recipe is SO special that I went out and bought a new crock pot. I shall call him Mr. Mini. Mr. Mini is a 4-quart Crock Potand did a great job with these Crock Pot Sweet Tangy Carrots.

Try something new with your carrots, you won’t regret it! Yum!

  Hi CC!
  I haven’t tried this recipe with parsnips and potatoes. If you add in parsnips only, I would cut the parsnips like the carrots and increase the other ingredients so that you have enough sauce for the additional veggies. However, with adding in the potatoes, you would need to add in some liquid for the potatoes to cook in. Also, with potatoes, I would use a softer potato and cut it into smaller pieces since the cooking time is shorter. If you give it a try, let me know how it goes!

  Hi Stacey!
  I had a typo in the recipe (one too many words! oops!). It is fixed now. You’ll need 12 carrots. Enjoy!

  Hi Joan!
  Yes, you can use baby carrots. Be sure and watch it closely the first time you make it and adjust your cooking time to work with the baby carrots. Enjoy!

  Hi Judy!
  I haven’t ever canned carrots before, so I don’t know if these could be canned or not. If you give it a try, let me know how it turns out! Enjoy!
