Servings 4

Ingredients

2 lbs carrots washed & peeled
¼ cup parmesan cheese
1 tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Chop carrots lengthwise into ‘fries’ about 1.5-2 inches length. Most carrots will need to be cut into quarters or even in sixths if they are very thick.
Place carrots in a medium bowl. Add oil and toss. Sprinkle in salt, pepper and parmesan cheese. Toss together and place on a silpat mat lined baking sheet (OR on non-stick foil lined baking sheet).
Roast in oven for 30-35 minutes or until lightly golden brown and carrots are tender. Serve warm or room temp. Dunk in your favorite dipping sauce, if desired.

Notes

If you do not have a silpat liner, use non-stick aluminum foil sprayed with oil spray (I use a Misto). Make sure to use non-stick foil or the carrots will still stick.
