I love carrots with Rotel Cheese Dip. Rotel is a brand of tomatoes and green chilies found in a can. You chuck cut a half a block of Velveeta and add the can of Rotel then microwave melt it. Ready for dipping.
Pare carrots and halve or quarter. Place in buttered 1 quart casserole. Sprinkle with combined salt and pepper and dot with butter.
Melt butter in a 1 1/2 quart casserole on medium high power for 30 seconds. Stir in brown sugar and salt.
