You’ll love the combination of sweet and earthy taste!

Carrots

You can use carrots of any color. We use classic orange carrots here.

Brussels sprouts

Pick fresh Brussels sprouts that are firm to the touch.

Extra virgin olive oil

Extra virgin olive oil is excellent for roasting vegetables because its high polyphenol content makes it stable at high roasting temperatures.

Paprika

Paprika adds a pleasant aroma and color. We use regular paprika, but you can also use smoked paprika. Substitute a pinch of red pepper flakes or other spices like ground cumin for paprika.

Garlic powder

You can use garlic powder or a couple of crushed garlic cloves.

Thyme

We like to season the veggies with dried thyme. Fresh thyme leaves picked off the small thyme stems work, too. Substitute Italian herb mix or rosemary for thyme.

Salt and black pepper

Try to go for sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Chop the carrots diagonally into 1/5 Inch or 1/2 cm pieces. Cut the Brussels sprouts in half. Arrange the chopped veggies on a baking tray (or sheet pan) and season with extra virgin olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss to combine, then arrange on a single layer without overlapping. Bake at 400°F or 200°C for about 30 minutes, or until the veggies are tender-crisp and slightly caramelized/charred outside. Transfer into a serving bowl, and enjoy it as a delicious side dish. Ps. You can top them with fresh herbs, pine nuts, or toasted almonds. Alternatively, sprinkle parmesan cheese and bake it for five more minutes.

Glazed roasted carrots

You can’t beat roasted carrots glazed in a finger-licking good maple syrup glaze. Check out our roasted carrots recipe. The sweet and tangy flavor of the dressing perfectly matches the roasted veggies. With a delicious protein–rich main such as:

Lentil Wellington with mashed potatoes, sautéed green beans, and mushrooms gravy. Tofu mushroom cutlets with sautéed mushrooms. Lentil vegetable soup with plenty of legumes and veggies. Vegetarian Bolognese packed with lentils, mushrooms, and a rich tomato sauce. Lentil pasta is the perfect healthy comfort food.
