Have you ever bought carrots directly from a farm? They have so much more flavor!! I bought these from Fall Line Farms and they are delicious. Carrots are in season now and this new recipe with an orange glaze is such a delicious way to eat them! You can also use the glaze in this recipe for other root veggies like turnips and parsnips and sweet potatoes. Don’t be afraid to make substitutions and get creative with what you have!
