I love carrots and recently I have had an abundance of the rainbow colored carrots! It’s wonderful! The kids love the fun color’s and I love that they are eating them without complaining!
One of the recipes I have made recently that my family fell in love with is Carrots baked with lime. This dish is very easy and gives the carrots a new fun flavor that is perfect for summer time!
Roasted Carrots with Lime
Ingredients:
1 lb carrots 2 Limes Juiced 2 tsp Italian seasoning (mixed Thyme, Basil, Oregano etc….) 2 tbs olive oil salt and pepper to tastePreheat oven to 400 degrees
Wash carrots, peel and cut off ends.
Place in Baking dish and sprinkle lime juice, Italian seasoning and olive oil over carrots.
Bake 15 minutes in oven
Season with salt and pepper before serving. Enjoy!
This recipe was quick and easy. The carrots were slightly crispy and bursting with flavor. I love how this is a dish that I can serve as a side with just about anything and it’s something that company would also enjoy! Also it can be prepared outside on the grill by just wrapping the carrots in aluminum foil before placing on the grill! Yum!
I love carrots and this is such a new, interesting way to try them.
Yum, these look delicious, healthy and easy to do. I’m going to try them tonight. Thank you !
I would never think to pair carrots and lime. I am going to have to try it.
This recipe sounds fairly simple and very yummy. I am definitely going to give it a try. Thanks for sharing. ;o)
yummy! I like carrots, I like limes, I like Italian seasoning. I’ll be trying this tonight for dinner.
What an interesting combo!
This sounds refreshing and delicious!
Hmmmm I’m not the biggest carrot fan but this looks intriguing! Can’t wait to try it out 🙂 Thanks for sharing. If you’re into carrots I have a great carrot soup recipe (sounds weird tastes awesome) http://westcoastleslie.blogspot.ca/2012/09/cream-of-carrot-soup.html
This sound very tasty and such a great alternative than the usual way to serve carrots.
That actually looks pretty good!
WOW – that is pretty cool! Like the look of it
I like the idea of adding the lime. I found cooked carrots too sweet and I think the lime would cut that!
This looks amazing!
That recipe sounds delicious! I will definitely have to try this one! Thank you for sharing!
What a yummy combination….. I have to try this for Easter…. 🙂
Have a HAPPY Easter… 🙂
