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

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.
