OVEN ROASTED CARROTS



Another easy parcheesi recipe for the aspiring (or already mastered) vegan chef!  These baby carrots are sure to be a hit with any crowd!  This recipe is also one that I've modified from a roasted tomato (+ sauce) recipe that is my own...which I shall share with you all when you are older!



INGREDIENTS

  • (1) 16 oz peeled carrots *
  • (3) Tbsp + (1) tsp extra virgin olive oi
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • (1) Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • (1) Tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
*You can use baby carrots, or mini peeled carrots if regular carrots are not in the fridge!
 
DIRECTIONS
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  • Chop carrots on the diagonal into bite size pieces, splitting any thick pieces in half
  • Coat carrots with 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Spread carrots out even on a baking tray and season with salt and pepper
  • Place carrots on middle rack of oven and bake for 20 minutes or until tender
  • In the meantime, chop up parsley and thyme then mix together with remaining olive oil
  • When carrots are tender, coat with parsley thyme mixture and then bake for 5-10 additional minutes or until herbs are crisped!
  • ¡Voila!
