Roasted Baby Carrots
These roasted carrots don't need any extra ingredients to taste absolutely amazing. The roasting brings out their natural sweetness... and they don't need a thing to get adults and kids alike ooh-ing and aah-ing over them.
You can also make this Easter dinner menu recipe by cutting whole carrots into fat sticks. But I think the naturally sweet flavor of baby carrots is just perfect for the high-temp roasting method used here.
Recipe serves 8-10
Ingredients:
2 lb. baby carrots
2 tbsp. olive oil
3/4 tsp. salt
