Roasted Carrots with Ginger | Quick Carrot Recipe

Roasted, grilled, chopped, or shaved, carrots are a year-round favorite. These versatile vegetables taste sweet and earthy, and they come in our favorite color—orange!

One of our favorite ways to eat freshly harvested carrots (and yes, anyone can grow carrots if they have a little patio and a lot of sun) is by roasting them with fresh thyme and ginger.

Serve them as a side dish to chicken, chopped up as a salad topper, or pureed into a spread. We could eat these veggies every day of the week—and we do!
