Instructions
  1. Place the carrots in a small saucepan.  Add just enough water to barely cover the carrots. Cover.  Bring to a boil.  Reduce heat to medium.  Cook for 7–8 minutes, just until the carrots are easily pierced with a sharp knife.
  2. While the carrots are cooking, combine margarine, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a small saucepan, and melt together over low heat (or put in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for a few seconds on high power, until margarine is mostly melted).  Stir well to combine ingredients.
  3. Drain carrots, leaving them in the saucepan.  Pour cinnamon mixture over carrots.  Cook and stir over medium heat for 2–3 minutes, just until carrots are thoroughly coated and the glaze thickens slightly. Serve warm.

Instructions
  1. Place the bread in a toaster oven on very low heat.  Toast as long as possible without burning (about 5 minutes).
  2. While bread toasts, trim leaves and stalks from cauliflower. Cut into individual florets.
  3. Place 1 inch of water in a 4-quart pot with lid.  Insert steamer basket, and place cauliflower in basket.  Sprinkle with salt.  Cover.  Bring to a boil over high heat.  Reduce heat to medium. Steam for 5–8 minutes, until easily pierced with a sharp knife.  Do not overcook.
  4. While cauliflower steams, break toast into small pieces.  Pulse toast in food processor until medium-sized crumbs form.  Tip:  If you don’t have a food processor, break or crush the toasted bread into finer pieces or buy whole-wheat breadcrumbs and use 2 tablespoons.
  5. When cauliflower is done, remove from heat.  Melt margarine in another pan over medium heat. Add breadcrumbs and pepper.  Cook and stir, about 5 minutes.  Add cauliflower to pan with breadcrumbs.  Toss until well coated.  Serve immediately.
