Honey Balsamic Roasted Carrots

Ingredients

• 2 lbs. medium carrots
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 2 heads garlic
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 2 tablespoons honey*
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray OR spray the baking sheet directly with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

2. 2

   Prepare the vegetables: Cut the carrots in half hotdog-style and then again hamburger-style (you're quartering them). Cut the onion into 1/4-inch slices. Place the sliced carrots and onion onto the baking sheet.

3. 3

   Prepare the garlic: Slice both ends off of each garlic head. Keep the casing on. Place onto the baking sheet.

4. 4

   Drizzle the veggies and garlic with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss so that everything is coated.

5. 5

   Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and give the veggies a good mix. Drizzle the veggies with honey and balsamic vinegar and toss again. Make sure to flip the garlic heads over.

6. 6

   Bake for another 20 minutes, or until the carrots are fork tender.

7. 7

   Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Carefully squeeze the garlic cloves out of the bulbs and toss with the roasted vegetables. Serve warm or at room temperature.
