Microwave Steamed Baby Carrots

Step 1

Place baby carrots in a microwave safe dish with a lid - make sure lid has holes for venting. Add 4 tbsp of water and cover.

Step 2

Microwave for 5 minutes. Remove from microwave using an oven mitt and lift lid facing away to let out steam. Use a fork to piece carrots and test if as soft as desired.

Step 3

Strain water, add butter spray (if using) and salt and pepper to taste. Serve with a protein entree.
