Children enjoy roasted vegetables a lot, most likely because they are sweet and tender. Roasted carrots are pretty popular here at school.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Peel 1-2 pounds of organic carrots (they are affordable!), and cut into 1/2-1 inch chunks. Throw on a sheet pan, and toss with a couple of tablespoons of olive oil, salt, pepper, and either fresh garlic (2-3 cloves) or dried garlic.
Roast carrots for 15-20 minutes, or until tender. You might like to toss them with a pat of butter or a little maple syrup before serving. Great accompanying a beef roast or pork!
