Oven-baked carrot fries - food from heaven

[LouGr]

Today I had difficulty choosing what to have with chicken because nothing sounded tempting. And then I came across the easiest recipe ever that I want to share with you:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2. Peel and cut carrots into "fries" shapes.

3. Place them on a cooking sheet on top of parchment paper.

4. Add a little bit of cooking oil and salt.

5. Bake for about 20-25 minutes until well browned and tender.

The fries were A-MA-ZING! They were sweet and mushy, a perfect fit with chicken. Absolutely baking them again soon.

I don't often see sweet potatoes around here but next time I do, I'll get some I've read somewhere that they are very healthy

Oh yummy that sounds lovely! I love baked veg. I bet your carrot fries would be good with spicy topping too - like cajun spice mix, or bbq.

I haven't thought about the sauce but I know what I'm having my carrots with next time I love bbq sauce
