Leek and Carrot Saute

The subtle sweetness of both carrots and leeks blend beautifully in this great nutriton-packed side dish.

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup dry white wine
3 medium leeks, chopped
4 large carrots, peeled and sliced

Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions:
Heat oil and wine in a large skillet. Add leeks and carrots.  Cover, cook over medium heat for about 8 -10 minutes or until tender-crisp.
