Ingredients

  1. 1 pound orange carrots, unpeeled
  2. 1 pound rainbow carrots, unpeeled
  3. Good olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450˚.

  4. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, turning once, until the carrots are lightly browned and tender. Sprinkle with the orange zest, orange juice and fleur de sel and toss well. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Easy and delicious recipe.  I used about 2 t. canned, concentrated orange juice as I did not have an orange. Turned out great.
