My son loves carrots. It is one vegetable I have always been able to depend on him devouring, even in his pickiest of stages. I remember him going through a stage where he turned up his nose at every vegetable I asked him about making for supper. Finally, I decided to let him start picking them as we walked through the produce section of the grocery store or to the local farmer’s market. Every single time, he’d immediately go for the carrots. The larger the bunch, the better. Thinking there was no way we’d make it through all of those carrots, I was always surprised at just how many ways there is to enjoy carrots. In soups, stews, smoothies, juicing them, steamed, roasted, and the list goes on and on. We love them all, too!

But then, I started making these easy balsamic roasted carrots and let me just say, I started grabbing the largest bunches of carrots in the produce section, too! Ha!

I scrub my carrots and place them on a rimmed baking sheet so that the balsamic mixture is contained while they bake. I drizzle the balsamic mixture onto my carrots and roast them. About halfway through, I turn the carrots to make sure that both sides are coated with that delicious balsamic flavor.

  1. Carrots are such a great addition to Thanksgiving menus. So easy and colorful and offers a nice healthy choice from all the carby stuff.

  2. Kids do seem to like carrots, if nothing else raw. Yay! I can see why you are liking this recipe. What tasty and easy way to prepare them.

  3. It’s always nice to have different ways to prepare produce. Sounds like you nailed this one! Do you think using those fat, nubby baby carrots would work? Turning them might be a trick though. Pinning it!

  4. I was a picky eater, too, and these carrots definitely would’ve made me happy! Now? I’d go even crazier over these 🙂
