There is no easier side dish than roasted vegetables. It’s my favorite way to prepare them! Today, we are taking two classic veggies, potatoes and carrots, tossing them with garlic butter and seasoning and roasting in the oven to perfection. It’s a simple yet delicious side dish recipe that pairs perfectly with any meat dish.

Ingredients:

• potatoes: I used baby golden potatoes but Russet work too
• carrots
• butter: I used unsalted
• seasoning: salt, pepper, sweet paprika, fresh thyme or rosemary
• garlic: fresh, minced

How to make Roasted Potatoes and Carrots?

• Start by washing your vegetables.
• Cut them into large chunks, preferably the same size for even cooking.
• In a bowl, whisk melted butter with seasoning and garlic.

• Pour seasoned butter over veggies and toss to coat.
• Arrange vegetables on a baking sheet, in a single layer. Use two baking sheets, if needed.
• Roast in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes.

Variations:

• add protein: bite-size pieces of chicken or pork can be added to vegetables and roasted together
• more veggies: add broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, etc
• cheese: sprinkle freshly-grated Parmesan cheese over veggies before roasting

Storing:

You can store leftovers in a container with a lid, in the fridge. Please, note that the texture will be much softer, the longer you refrigerate the vegetables. They are best served fresh.
