Deliciously seasoned roasted rainbow carrots are an incredible festive edition to any dish you are serving. We make roasted veggies at least once a week – they are a yummy addition to my favourite Kale Salad recipe, a dish on their own or served as a side dish.

I am loving the addition of Rainbow Carrots I’m able to purchase at my local co-op this time of year. I love how festive they look on the table, even if they are still carrots, Serena likes to call them magical carrots.

If are unable to find them at your local co-op use your typical organic carrots.

This recipe is extremely easy, but I do have a few tips to make sure these turn out ultra yum!

How to make the best oven roasted veggies!

These simple tips apply when roasting all vegetables.

  • Make sure the vegetables don’t overlap! To avoid overlap, use a large sheet pan or use 2 different sheet pans. You want to make sure the vegetables each have their own “personal space” and aren’t overlapping with each other.
  • Use a delicious spice mixture. Choose fresh black pepper and sea salt vs regular table salt and season with fresh herbs and spices.
  • Flip the veggies halfway through baking. After 20 minutes of roasting, make sure to flip and stir the vegetables. This ensures an even roasting on ALL sides of ALL veggies. Simple right?
