Garlic Thyme Roasted Carrots
Whenever people ask me for side dish recommendations for one of my main course recipes, I almost always suggest roasted vegetables. There are endless combinations and varieties, they’re easy to prep, and they go with practically everything. Plus, they’re my absolute favorite way to get some veggies in because they’re so delicious. I’d say we do broccoli most often, but I love changing it up and trying different vegetables, seasonings and herbs. These Garlic Thyme Roasted Carrots were a tasty result of that experimentation and I’d call them a big success. The subtly sweet carrots pair beautifully with the fresh herb and garlic.

YUM! I haven’t roasted carrots in forever, but I’m loving the flavor combination!
Hi Emily! This recipe looks fantastic! Side note that in Step 3 I think you have a typo – “Place the potatoes” – I think you meant carrots 🙂
These carrots are scrumptious! The thyme is a great addition. Thanks!
