Roasted Balsamic Carrots are tender, sweet and a bit tart from the balsamic vinegar. A must make side dish.
I don’t like carrots. I should say that I don’t like cooked carrots. I’ll eat them raw all day long, but cooked not so much. I will add them to stews, soups and roasts.
My husband on the other hand loves carrots. I knew that I had to find a recipe that he and I would love. So I went to my old stand-by, roasting. I’ll roast any vegetable, any day of the year.
Roasted carrots are the bomb! They are so tender and the balsamic vinegar gives them a nice tart flavor. I love these carrots!
These are super simple to make – you need 2 lbs. carrots, olive oil, salt and pepper and balsamic vinegar.
Peel and chop your carrots or use baby carrots, place on a rimmed cookie sheet. Drizzle 1 1/2 tbsp. olive oil over the carrots, sprinkle with salt and pepper (to taste) and then toss the carrots making sure they are all coated in olive oil and the salt and pepper. I used my hands because sometimes the best utensil you have is your hands. Roast the carrots in a 400 degree oven for 25-30 minutes. Remove the carrots from the oven and drizzle 2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar and toss. Serve immediately.
Everyone is sure to love these!
Enjoy!

Love balsamic with carrots! Recipe looks easy too! Thanks!
Oh, my. I’ve roasted carrots with other veggies, but never alone. This has got to change—your carrots look fantastic@@@
Balsamic is such a versatile ingredient! And I love the older kind that are like syrup and have a touch of sweet. I bet it pairs well with already sweet carrots. Yum!
Love the caramelization!
