Carrots with Ginger and Maple Syrup

I was trying to do a side dish that was a little festive in order to stave off the winter blues, but I also wanted something nutritious, fast and simple.  My local supermarket had carrots and ginger on sale, so the choice was easy.

My quick preparation synopsis:

• Slice up some carrots and ginger (to taste.)  Add to baking dish.
• Drizzle with oil (I used some olive oil and a bit of sesame oil for flavor.)
• Sprinkle with sugar and a pinch of  salt.
• Toss together, cover with foil, and place in heated oven.
• Check tenderness after 2o minutes.  Drizzle carrots with maple syrup (to taste), cover, and return to oven until desired tenderness is reached.
