Roasted Carrots with Citrus and Garam Masala

Roasted Carrots with Citrus and Garam Masala
One can never have enough ideas for quick vegetables sides, and this one showcases the humble goodness of carrots baked in a tangy citrus and garam masala glaze. As carrots are something I have always have on hand in my crisper because they keep for a few weeks so I don't have to worry about food waste, this simple dish is great when you are pressed for time and are making a dinner with staples you might have on hand. However, this colorful dish shines in its own right, and goes just as well with a more elaborately planned meal as well.
