No Honey? No problem. Try using maple syrup in place of honey.
Honey crystallized in the jar? Place the jar in a bowl of warm water to help melt the crystals.
Eat the rainbow. Try using different colored carrots to add even more color to your table. Carrots can be found in purple, yellow, orange, and even white.
Change up the main ingredient. Try other root vegetables such as parsnips, rutabaga, or even turnips. Cubed butternut squash is also delicious when roasted in this honey mixture!
Spice it how you like it. Try changing up the spices by using onion powder, ginger, fresh minced garlic or thyme. If you like thing spicy, try a dash of cayenne.
