Ingredients

  • 1 lb carrots washed and trimmed
  • 1/2 Tablespoon avocado or olive oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh herbs thyme, dill or parsley

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Peel carrots and chop any large carrots in half. Slice carrots diagonally into  1" pieces. You want the pieces to be pretty similar in size so they cook evenly and you don't want the pieces too small because the carrots will shrink when roasting.
    Cut carrots on a wooden cutting board.
  • Toss carrots in a bowl with the oil, salt, pepper and 2 Tablespoons of fresh herbs.
    Cut carrots with fresh herbs in a large glass bowl.
  • Transfer to a sheet pan in 1 layer and roast in the oven for 15 minutes, toss carrots and return to the oven for 10-15 minutes or until carrots are tender with a few brown spots.
    Cut carrots with fresh herbs on a baking tray.
  • Toss the carrots with remaining fresh herbs, taste and add additional salt and pepper, if needed. Serve warm.
