Asparagus & Carrots
Ingredients
1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
4 medium carrots, peeled and halved lengthwise (use sparingly to keep carbs lower)
2 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp dried thyme
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tbsp melted butter (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Arrange the asparagus and carrots in a baking dish.
Drizzle with olive oil and add the minced garlic. Toss to coat evenly.
Season with thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the vegetables and drizzle with melted butter if using.
Roast for 20–25 minutes, until the asparagus is tender and the carrots are lightly caramelized.
Serve hot with extra Parmesan if desired.
