Ingredients
Vegetables
- ½ lb carrots, cut into thin planks
- ½ lb green beans, washed and trimmed
Seasoning & Oil
- 1-2 tbsp cooking oil (avocado oil recommended)
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp dried thyme
- ¼ tsp dried oregano
- ¼ heaping tsp salt
- ⅛ tsp pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). For easier cleanup, line your baking sheet with foil, parchment paper, or a silicone baking mat.
- Mix vegetables and seasonings: In a large bowl, combine the carrot planks and trimmed green beans. Add the cooking oil, garlic powder, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss everything thoroughly to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated.
- Arrange on baking sheet: Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure not to overcrowd them to allow for even roasting. If necessary, roast in batches or use multiple sheets.
- Roast the vegetables: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time. Roast until the vegetables are tender and have reached your desired level of doneness.
Notes
- Cut carrots uniformly to ensure even cooking.
- You can swap avocado oil with olive oil or any other neutral oil.
- For extra flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice after roasting.
- If you prefer crisper vegetables, reduce the roasting time slightly.
- Use fresh herbs instead of dried if available, adjusting quantities accordingly.
