Carrots are the easiest side dish that you can prepare for dinner. And with Easter right around the corner, it seems quite fitting to share this recipe with you. Bunnies…. carrots… it’s not a coincidence that easy garlic and herb roasted carrots makes the Easter dinner cut.

The tastiest (and easiest) way to make carrots is roasting them. Roasting brings out their flavour and intensifies it, making them sweeter and more flavourful. And why not throw in some garlic and herbs while you are at it? Carrots will never taste the same!

And when it only takes 5-10 minutes prep before you pop these carrots in the oven… this dish is worry-free and stress-free. You can focus on preparing and cooking your other dishes. Yes!

Tip:

Use carrots that still have the tops still on. It just makes everything look prettier on a plate!
When ready to serve, you can also sprinkle some chopped fresh parsley on top.
