They will just melt into it and add a background sweetness rather than pieces of carrot.Calebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06164055888897106316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429363333006205782.post-61292194659917727792013-02-17T16:42:01.753-08:002013-02-17T16:42:01.753-08:00The pie is broiled 10-15 minutes.

What about simmering them at the same time as the cubed potato. THen adding them into the recipe as normal? Any downside (except one more step).. How long did you broil this?<br /><br />SandySandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08497717736930321727noreply@blogger.com
