Ingredients:
  • canola oil
  • 2 (16 ounce) packages baby carrots

  • 1.25 cups orange juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt

  • Combine carrots, sweet potatoes, and prunes in the prepared baking dish. In a bowl, mix pineapple juice, honey, orange juice, salt, and cinnamon until smooth. Pour over the vegetables and cover with aluminum foil.
