Mom says “We had several requests for this recipe. I had never made it but so glad I did. Yummy!!”
This counts as vegetable! Have it for lunch or dinner!! Weigh it out and enjoy!
Cut 4 large carrots into thing strips about 4 inches long.
Toss with 1 1/2 tbsp of olive oil, 1 tsp of salt, 1/4 tsp of pepper, 1 tsp garlic, 1/4 tsp paprika or cumin. The sky is the limit with flavor, so put whatever spices you like!
Spread evenly on a lined baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes in a 425 degree oven. Turn once at about 15 minutes.
Pro tip: place your oven rack into the position about 1/3 from the top. This will make for “crispier fries!” Recipe to follow.
