Carrot Fries

Carrot Fries
That's right! Fries made out of carrots!!! My boys are getting a bit tired of carrots lately but unfortunately for them, we bought a huge bag of carrots. While searching for new ways to make carrots, I can across carrot fries. They are a huge hit with my boys. My oldest even rated them better then restaurant potato fries!

Carrot Fries

3 cups carrots - sliced into fry-like shapes
2 Tbs. extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp. sea salt
herbs or spices of your choice (I've been adding a basic Italian spice blend)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Mix all ingredients in a bowl. Spread carrots evenly on a pan (one with a lip to it) and cook for 20-25 minutes.

That's it! So simple!

  1. Oh wow! I never thought to do this. I always do sweet potato, but will give this a try. Does it taste similar to sweet potato? Looks delish!

  2. It is closer to sweet potatoes/yams then it is to regular potatoes but they definitely taste like carrots!
