Quick Pickled Carrots

"Quick pickled carrots are a breeze to make and perfect for serving numerous ways. Besides charcuterie boards, salads and snacking they make an amazing hostess gift. Sara and I decided years ago that traditional water bath canning was not our thing. We admire those who do it, but we rarely have enough of any produce that we need to preserve it for months and months. We wanted to step outside our usual pickling flavor profile with the carrots. We didn’t use garlic like we have with the other veggies and no dill either."
