Another simple, yet elegant side dish, especially if you can find actual baby carrots (not the fake baby carrots from the grocery store, though those will work too!). Actual baby carrots look like regular carrots (with the tops still on), but they are much smaller. You can often find them at your local farmers markets and sometimes a regular grocery store.

These are a great side dish for any summer meal. The roasting process concentrates the natural sugars and sweetness and also brings out that “browned” flavor that we all love. This side dish is so easy to make and will certainly look like a fancy restaurant-style dish.

Happy eating!
