I just love roasted rainbow carrots and can not get enough of them lately! The pretty colors of purple, orange and yellow just scream at me to eat them. I recently figured out that carrots are a super amazing detox food up there with cucumbers, coconut water, hot lemon water and ginger. When you roast carrots, it bring out their natural sweet flavor.
The more color variations, the prettier they are! Aren't they divine looking arranged on a white platter? The colors just pop and visually makes them so fun to eat.
