    📝Ingredients for roasted carrots

    • 5 large carrots
    • Olive oil
    • Oregano
    • Basil
    • Dried parsley
    • Garlic
    • Parmesan cheese
    • Salt and pepper to taste

    🔪Instructions

    Making these roasted carrots is super easy:

    • First you'll prepare the carrots - cut them about ⅛th of an inch (see example in photo below.) The thinner you slice them, the faster they'll roast
    • Add the carrots to a large baking sheet, covered in parchment paper. Sprinkle with Kosher salt and drizzle with olive oil.

    Roasted carrots for about 25 minutes. Then toss them the oregano, basil, parsley, garlic and parmesan cheese and serve warm.

    🥕What to serve with oven roasted carrots

    Here are a few main dishes that would go great with these parmesan carrots:

    • Cast Iron Skillet Chicken Breast
    • Easy Baked Salmon with Mayo
    • Cast Iron Skillet Whole Roasted Chicken
    • Easy Gluten-Free Turkey Burger Recipe
    • Baked Feta and Cherry Tomato Pasta (gluten-free)

    Parmesan cheese is just one of those things that makes everything better, you know?

    Plus, since graduating from the powdery stuff years ago (I grew up with it smothered on my spaghetti) to the real deal, with it's month-long aging process and coming from Italy, I have seen the light.

    And now that I've seen said light, I'll grate me some parmesan cheese on almost anything:

    • Soups and stews - my hubby especially likes it on this dish - Slow Cooker Chicken with Chickpeas
    • Pasta dishes - basically any pasta, try this Baked Feta and Cherry Tomato Pasta (gluten-free)
    • Vegetables - especially green beans. YUM.
    • And case in point, these Easy Roasted Garlic Carrots with Parmesan Cheese!

    Buying a huge bag of carrots call for some way to use them up.

    And a recipe like these Roasted Garlic Carrots with Parmesan Cheese gives you a fighting chance of finishing up that big bag.

    🥡Storage

    Any leftovers will keep well in the fridge for a couple days in an air-tight container.

    Re-heat them in the microwave and get creative with when you eat them!

    I'll have a scoop of roasted carrots with my eggs in the morning. Carrots for breakfast = amazing way to start your gluten-free day😎

    🙋‍♀️Are carrots good for me?

    1000% yes.

    It's awesome how economical carrots are but they also pack major nutrition with a ton of benefits like fibre, antioxidants and vitamins and minerals, like vitamin A, vitamin B6, vitamin C and vitamin K.

    It's like a bag will cost as little as a buck sometimes.

    Like holy man that's a lot of nutrition for a dollar?!

    🏅Top Tips

    Evenly cut carrots

    Do your best to cut the carrots at (approximately) the same width.

    Yes, I have a mandolin. And no, I didn't get it out.

    The seasoning is good on other things!

    The seasoning for these carrots is lovely.

    It's my new favourite go-to combo of oregano+basil+parsley.

    I'm not exactly sure what the dried parsley does (not much?) but this trio will save you in a pinch every time.

    Combine these three amigos together and throw it on roasted veggies, chicken or in a soup.

    Roasting time is forgiving

    The roasting of the carrots is super forgiving.

    I've left them in for an extra 25 min (whoops hehe) and I actually loved the browned, almost sweet-tasting result so feel free to leave them in longer than I have on this recipe.

    I hope you try this recipe and love it like we do.

    Ingredients

    • 5 large carrots, sliced about ¼" thick 6 cups sliced

    • Place sliced carrots on the baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with a big pinch of salt and stir a bit on the baking sheet to coat the carrots.
    • Bake in pre-heated oven for 25 minutes. Be sure to check on them about half-way through and give them a flip.
    • Once roasted through, place carrots in large bowl. Add crushed garlic, oregano, basil and parsley. Toss to combine.

    Increase the cooking time by 10 minutes at a time if you like a crispier carrot. Check them every 10 additional minutes until you get the browning you're looking for.
