Roasted Cheese Crisp Carrots

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Add melted butter to a casserole dish or smaller baking pan.

If using carrots larger than 2-3 inches long, cut them into shorter sticks.

Mix grated cheese with herb blend seasoning. Add to dish and mix with butter until you create a paste-like texture. Spread evenly across bottom of dish/pan.

Place halved carrots face down in pan on top of the cheese/butter/seasoning mix. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until carrots are tender. Remove from the oven but allow to cool slightly before removing carrots from the dish, which allows the cheese to crisp up. Using a spatula to get the edge under the crispy cheese part, remove carefully and place on a serving dish. Garnish with finely chopped fresh herbs.

Serves 4
