Sweet Roasted Carrots

Cooked carrots get a bad rap.  I think it's because we were all force fed mushy, tasteless carrots when we were kids and that memory has stuck with us into adulthood.  Such a shame.  These simple roasted carrots, however,  are delicious and NOTHING like what I remember from when I was little.  So before you pass up roasted carrots as an adult, give this recipe a try.

Time from Prep to Eating: 50 minutes

What You Need:
Cookie sheet

The Stuff (Warning, this serves 4 hungry adults!):
1 bushel of whole carrots, peeled and cut into pieces about 2 inches long
Canola oil
Salt and pepper
1 to 1.5 tsp sugar

Here’s What You Do:
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Line your cookie sheet with tin foil (for easy cleanup) and place your cut carrots onto the sheet. Drizzle the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper and bake for 25 minutes. Take the carrots out, turn them with a spatula, sprinkle with the sugar and place them back in the oven for 5 more minutes at 400 degrees. Enjoy!
