My family just loves the flavor of Savory Carrots. They’re perfect to go with roast or baked chicken. This is a sponsored post.
Here in Texas it’s all about iced tea. We drink it every night at dinner and usually at lunch, too. It’s definitely the unofficial drink of Texas. We tend to prefer unsweet tea at our home, but a nice tall glass of sweet tea every once in a while is definitely a treat.
When I’m in a rush to grab something quick for dinner, I’ll grab a jug of tea from Walmart at the same time. Milo’s® Famous Sweet Tea is one we recently started buying, and it’s now at Walmart! Right now you can get it on rollback for 2/$5!
Just the other day, I picked up a jug of Milo’s® Famous Sweet Tea and a jug of Milo’s® Unsweet Tea. You can click here to Locate Milo’s Tea.
A lot of times when I need an easy dinner for my family, I’ll put a chuck roast in the slow cooker with some carrots and some beefy onion soup mix. My family doesn’t really like cooked carrots that are sweet. They prefer a more savory flavor, and the soup mix always does the trick.
The other day I had the chuck roast defrosted and ready for the slow cooker, but I had no carrots. I was going to be away from home too long to add them to the slow cooker, so I couldn’t cook them with the roast. I knew I couldn’t just skip them because the carrots are my kids’ favorite part of the entire meal when I cook a roast.
Here’s what I did. When the roast was ready to come out, I just steamed the savory carrots in the microwave for 7 minutes in beefy onion soup mix. No one could tell they weren’t cooked along with the roast!
Savory Baby Carrots
Savory steamed carrots are the perfect side dish.

When it was time to set the table for dinner, I pulled out both jugs of delicious Milo’s® Famous Sweet Tea and Milo’s® Unsweet Tea to go with the chuck roast and savory carrots.

I was born and raised on sweet tea, but I’ve been drinking unsweetened for years. I’ve never tried Milo’s tea before, but I’ll look for it at Walmart. I can’t wait to try your carrot recipe. I’m crazy for carrots.
I love iced tea. Although I’ve never heard of Milo’s before, I’ll look for it the next time I’m at Walmart. Sounds like a fabulous drink! And your carrots look good, too!
I don’t think I have ever seen Milo’s, but I do love iced tea! The savory carrots look delicious and the whole thing reminds me of traditional Sunday dinners we used to have at my grandmas house.
Wow – what a unique recipe! I will have to try this our for dinner.
That roast looks sublime, I have not heard of milo’s tea but there is a brand here in the UK called milo and it’s a hot chocolate so I thought it was same company but it’s not. Thanks for sharing
I love sweet tea. I don’t think I have ever seen this brand, but I’m going to look now!
This looks like the perfect Southern meal! I love what you did with the carrots. I must try that soon!
Here in California we don’t drink much sweet tea, but when we go to the South it seems to be on just about every restaurant menu. BY the way, your carrots look scrumptious!
I’m a big fan of iced tea. And that is a great idea for the carrots.
Teas are great when it comes to adding more flavor to any party. I am excited to try Milo’s famous sweet tea.
I can already taste the rich flavor in the carrots based on the photos. The milos tea can be a great meal complement.
I have never had Milos Tea before but it sounds good and we here love teas I will have to pick some up. These carrots sounds so delicious and I will have to make this recipe.
I thought I was the only one that used an onion soup mix on carrots! I think this means we’re officially bffs. lol.
I’m in Texas too. I have never seen Milo’s, but I have to have my tea daily. Totally looking for Milo’s on my next Walmart trip. Oh and those carrots look delish.
I love your carrot recipe! Also, I like that Milo’s comes in big gallon jugs because it sure goes down smoothly.
This might sound weird but I just can’t drink tea. I’m more or a coffee or water person but those Savory Baby Carrots sure look yummy <3
I have to try your savory carrots, they look absolutely delicious! My husband and kids love sweet tea, I’m going to try Milo’s.
