Sesame Glazed Carrot Fries
I don't know about you but I can't wait for fresh vegetables from the garden! I am dreaming of fresh carrots, beans and potatoes right now...yummy! One of my favourite ways to have fresh vegetables is oven roasted. There are so many ways you can change them up and make delicious new dishes! While we wait for our gardens to come up, here is a lovely recipe for a carrot and parsnip side dish. If you don't like parsnip you can make it with just the carrots. A yummy week day side dish!
