Even though I am already a subscriber, can I still get the cookbook?
these are insane! and it makes eating vegetables pretty easy 😉
Kevin…at the end of the recipes you have the nutrients..but not an amount. Is the calorie count and such for the whole 2 lbs of carrots and bacon or for how many? and I love everything you do!
What a brilliant idea! Definitely doing this for Thanksgiving! Thanks for the recipe!
Love it!
these look amazing!

Kevin….you list 328 carbs for this dish…even for the ENTIRE dish, that's way more than could possible be in it for the ingredients listed? The maple syrup only adds 8.67 carbs per serving? One medium Carrot has 6 carbs…and bacon has NONE…. Where are all those carbs coming from??
I'm figuring about 15 carbs per medium sized carrot…and about 4 carrots per serving…60 carbs per serving? ANYWAY…these look INCREDIBLE…and yes, I will be serving them for Thanksgiving this year!
How cow! I am totally craving this now!

Delicious! I used 1/2 carrots and 1/2 parsnips. I used maple syrup for the carrots and ginger syrup for the parsnips. Served with roasted cider brined turkey.
Vee C: I'm glad you liked them and the parsnips in ginger syrup sounds amazing!
Oh my goodness! You found a way to make eating bacon HEALTHY! I loved this. I must have eaten… well, I ate a lot. These are absolutely delicious! I'll be sending lots of friends and family your way. I'm looking forward to trying more recipes of yours. Thank you for a deliciously evil way to eat carrots.
This recipe failed completely! I'm now adding 15 minutes beyond the time and they are still not soft. I think you'd have to slightly boil these first. There has to be a missing step. Also, I would definitely not waste the maple syrup until the end. It just melts and burns.
I experienced the same. 45 minutes is more reasonable. I used the slender sized carrots as recommended and they were more done where the bacon was wrapped, but undone elsewhere. And yes the syrup basting is a waste. I did add it after they were completely done.
Ms Prieto: How thick were your carrots?
im gonna make these….thx 🙂
