Parmesan Garlic Roasted Carrot Spirals
I never cared for carrots as a child, but they have really grown on me as an adult. I love roasted sausage, and veggies and carrots are always in the pan.
It is nice to experiment with different veggie recipes, so we don't get sick of eating them. I need all the help I can get to eat more veggies!
How to Make Parmesan Garlic Roasted Carrot Spirals
First, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Spiralize the carrots. I like to use my Ninja Intelli-Sense Kitchen System with Auto-Spiralizer
. It is AWESOME at spiralizing veggies. You can check out a video demo I made HERE.
Toss the carrot spirals into a medium size bowl
and add in the minced garlic
, onion powder
, and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
. Add salt & pepper to taste preferences.
Place the carrots on a baking stone or cookie sheet. I like to use a stoneware bar pan
. It seems to make the veggies roast evenly and perfectly. If you want to spray the pan with the nonstick cooking spray you can.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the carrots are tender and crisp. This can really vary from person to person. We like our roasted veggies REALLY well done! 🙂
Remove from the oven and garnish with Parmesan.
Great for Holidays
I think these roasted carrot spirals are perfect for holiday meals. They look so pretty on a platter. It is the perfect healthy side dish to help you stay on track if you are trying to lose weight.
Weight Watchers Points
If you are following the Weight Watchers program, this is a great side dish option. The whole recipe has 3 points. If you divide it into 4 servings it will be 1 point per serving on all 3 myWW plans. So 1 point for blue, green, and purple plans.
It is hard to say exactly how much each serving size will be due to the carrots being different sizes. The only thing that has points is Parmesan cheese.
On the current Weight Watchers Program (2023), it is 1 point per serving. Divide the carrots equally into 4 portions and one portion is a serving.
