Carrot and Zucchini Fries

One of my greatest joys in life is making vegetables taste good to other people. When someone is especially excited about a tasty piece of zucchini I made, I am a happy girl. You're already rolling your eyes I know, but stay with me. Zucchini and carrot fries are my quiet specialty. They make a great snack or side to burgers and sandwiches. Where you would normally throw a side of fries/chips or a side salad, why not throw the best vegetables you've ever tasted instead? Zucchini and carrot fries are an excellent addition to a plate in both color and flavor. And I'm not even going to talk about the healthy part; we're all smart people here.

The trick here is roasting. Roasting at a high temp in the oven for about 20 minutes can work some serious magic. (Caramelization is always your friend.) Feel free to throw some other veggies in the mix too. Zucchini is my favorite because it takes on seasoning so well but peppers, sweet potatoes, green beans, etc. can all be transformed in the same way. Follow these simple steps and you'll be on your way to making some shockingly delightful savory treats that you can feel awesome about.
