Ingredients
  

  • 1 bunch asparagus woody ends trimmed
  • 4 large carrots peeled and sliced into sticks
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Grated Parmesan cheese optional, for serving

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
  • Trim the woody ends off the asparagus. Peel and slice the carrots into sticks about the same size as the asparagus.
  • Spread the asparagus and carrots on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  • Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized.
  • Transfer the roasted vegetables to a serving platter. Optionally, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and serve warm.

Notes

For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
