Roasted Spiced-Carrots
Thanksgiving is here once again. A holiday which originated from the minds at Hallmark to sell turkeys and cranberry sauce. Or maybe I'm thinking of every other holiday ever. These roasted carrots are a perfect side dish for you Thanksgiving dinner, because let's be honest we're all tired of soupy sweet potatoes covered in marshmallows.
Good news everyone! The PSU farmer's market is now open year round! Do yourself a favor next Saturday and stop by, even during the winter there's still a vibrant selection of produce and other locally made food.
Carrotz are far better than carrots. Also "More Potatoes" is the slogan of Ireland.
Oregon chanterelles are by far one of my favorite varieties mushroom. Most people have a favorite sports team, I have a favorite mushroom, so your move ladies!
Here's a crab for some reason in the middle of a post about carrots.
