"What I love about roasted carrots is that they develop deep concentrated flavor with those crispy caramelized edges. Being a person who frequently eats and enjoys roasted carrots, I am generally underwhelmed by steamed carrots! Roasted carrots are an easy and healthy snack or side dish, and would definitely add a fresh welcoming color to your dining table. Hope you like it!"
