What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? The Color of Food: Mustard Glazed Rainbow Carrots! Have you noticed carrots now come in rainbow colors? How exciting is that?! It’s not only the color that catches your attention, it’s the difference in flavor. Traditional orange carrots have a certain sweet earthiness we’re all familiar with, whether you eat them raw or cooked. Others colors may range from a slightly peppery taste to mildly subtle one. Either way, the combination offers a range of nutrients linking benefits to eye health, better digestion, and possibly even cancer prevention. Refine your taste buds. Give rainbow carrots a try. Organic, of course.
MUSTARD GLAZED RAINBOW CARROTS
Ingredients:
12 ounces organic rainbow baby-cut carrots, cut lengthwise or left whole
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon natural honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon rosemary leaves
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425°. Place carrots in a shallow dish. Combine olive oil, natural honey, Dijon mustard, rosemary leaves, garlic powder, sea salt, and white pepper. Mix well. Pour over carrots to coat. Transfer mixture to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake 20-30 minutes, turning every 10 minutes for a roasted, golden glow. Serve immediately.
Interesting recipe.. Wonderful presentation, Gail!👍
