Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound carrots washed and trimmed
  • 2 pound sweet potatoes
  • 2 whole garlic cloves sliced thin
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pinch salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees (200 C)
  • Prep vegetables: Wash sweet potatoes and carrots. Cut stems from sweet potatoes and cut into 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) cubes. Cut stems from carrots and slice into 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) slices, then cutting any large slices in halves or quarters to match the size of the sweet potatoes.
  • Roast vegetables: Toss the carrots and sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil, tossing the vegetables to completely cover with oil and sprinkle with sliced garlic, salt, and pepper. Place sheet pan in the oven and roast for 30-40 minutes, stirring halfway through to roast on all sides.
  • Serve vegetables: Remove pan from oven, arrange vegetables on a plate and serve as a side dish or cool them and use as a salad or grain bowl topping.

Notes

  • Tools Needed: sheet pan, knife set, cutting board
  • Prep Ahead: Wash and cut vegetables ahead of time to reduce prep time before cooking. If serving cold on salads or bowls, you can make this recipe up to three days ahead of time.
  • Leftovers and Storage: Vegetables should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. For best taste and texture, do not freeze and reheat.
  • Nutrition notes: Nutrition information is estimated for only ingredients in the recipe, not the additional spice options given. This simple roasted carrot and sweet potato recipe is a good source of fiber, vitamin A, and vitamin C.
