This is the perfect time of year to plant and grow carrots. They are a cool weather crop and so fun to harvest. Carrots are packed with beta-carotene, fiber, and numerous vitamins and minerals making them a great addition to any meal. Roasting carrots will bring out the sweetness of this classic vegetable and enhances their flavor giving them a wonderful, caramelized texture. They are perfect for serving as a side dish or adding to salads, tacos, or grain bowls. It is also a great way to get those essential nutrients from a fresh source.
