I was at Trader Joe’s recently and spotted a bag of gorgeous, organic, multi-colored carrots that I just couldn’t resist. 

It included white carrots, yellow carrots, purple carrots, and the traditional orange variety. 

The juxtaposition was so pretty and esthetically pleasing, I just had to have them, so in my cart they went – with gnocchi, gyoza, and my other 10 Favorite Products at Trader Joe’s.

Carrots are inherently sweet when you cook them, so I was really being drawn towards the warm, earthy flavors in my spice rack. 

Curry powder, ground turmeric, and garlic are perfect because their strong, savory, warm flavors definitely complement carrots’ sweetness. 

Totally optional, but I like to add a little cayenne pepper for just a slight kick.

NOTES:
