Baked Parmesan Carrot Fries


I don't discriminate against any food. I love healthy food. Unhealthy food. Everything. Except mushrooms.

As a kid, I always gravitated towards fried foods: tempura, French fries, French fry cheese melts, onion rings...the list goes on and on. I won't deny liking those foods. They taste so good.  I also won't lie and tell you these are the same thing, but they do definitely satisfy my craving, are a healthy alternative and taste SO good!

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 35 minutes (depending on how thin you slice the carrots)
Total Time: 40 minutes
Yield: 2-3 servings

Ingredients

10 medium carrots
2 teaspoons oil (coconut or olive oil work great)
Salt to taste
1/4 Parmesan cheese (optional)


Instructions
  • Preheat oven to 210 degrees Celcius (~410 degrees Fahrenheit)
  • Peel and slice the carrots into french fry like strips
  • Toss carrots with olive oil, salt and any other desired spices
  • Arrange carrots in a single layer in tin
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes and then flip each carrot fry. Continue to bake until fully cook and slightly crispy
  • If using parmesan cheese add and cook for an additional 5 or so minutes
  • Enjoy!
