Carrot Fries

We have a new side-dish in the Hernandez household we're a little nuts for. John refers to them as carrot "fries"--really, they're just roasted carrots. They're the easiest thing to make and beyond yummy. To say we like them is an understatement--we've eaten them three nights in a row. Hey, what else do you do with a 10 lb. bag of organic carrots from Costco besides make baby food? That's right, you make carrot "fries" :)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees
2-3 lbs. of peeled carrots, cut into 1 1/2-2 in. chunks, then cut lengthwise.
Toss with EVOO, Kosher salt and pepper
Roast for 40 minutes.
ENJOY!

Waiting to go in the oven...
Every night, after Lola is done with her dinner, she plays in her play pen so nice while I get dinner going for John and I. Just another reason she's the best!
All roasted and ready for eating!
Tonight, I paired it with Thai Peanut Chicken.
Last night, with Salmon.
Night before that, Grilled Italian Chicken.

Enough carrots for this week, tomorrow night is Lou Malnati's!
