OVEN-ROASTED CARROTS AND ONIONS

Oven-Roasted Carrots and Onions image

The dry heat of the oven caramelizes the natural sugars in vegetables, which brings about an amazing depth of flavor. Baby carrots vary in size depending on time of year and where they are grown, so check for doneness after 30 to 40 minutes.
