  4. Oh yum, that does look good. For the first time in ages we have no carrots. I don't usually run out of them as we are always eating them.

  13. I enjoy eating roasted vegetables, and always include carrots. I'll have to try just the carrots on their own and include cinnamon, which I wouldn't have usually used. Thanks Jan.

  18. Jan, the timing of this recipe is great as I just bought a bag of nice, larger carrots last week. While I know that the sugar content of this veggie is higher than others, moderation will be applied😋

  19. I always roast my carrots because it really brings out their delicious taste. I sometimes make them a bit spicy and sometimes I add a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg. I haven't tried this recipe though. Thanks for sharing. And have a super new week to you Jan.

  29. I love the mix of warm spices. It gives such a cozy, autumn feel. The sesame oil is a nice touch too; I bet it adds just the right hint of richness.
