Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams carrots
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons optional balsamic glaze
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Wash and peel the carrots, then slice them into evenly sized sticks or rounds about 1/2 inch thick.
Wash the Brussels sprouts, trim the stems, and cut them in half lengthwise.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the carrots, Brussels sprouts, olive oil, garlic powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.
Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender with golden, crispy edges.
If desired, drizzle the roasted vegetables with balsamic glaze for a sweet and tangy finish before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish to your favorite main course and enjoy!
