If you want to enjoy carrots at their finest, roasting them in the oven is the way to go! We put a unique twist (literally!) on classic roasted carrots by running them through a spiralizer. Check out this easy side dish that’s perfect with any homemade dinner on your Flex meal menu!
If you haven’t invested in a spiralizer yet, this handy kitchen tool should be your next purchase! It’s the perfect way to create healthy noodles and low-carb alternatives to your favorite pasta dinners.
After creating crunchy spirals of rainbow carrots, we season this healthy veggie to perfection with olive oil, onion powder and garlic powder. Next, we spread them into an even layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and top them with a sprinkle of pumpkin seeds and chopped medjool dates. After about ten minutes in a 400 degree oven, we top them with creamy crumbles of goat cheese before digging in!
