Roasted Carrots with Sage and Walnuts

By á-49368

Using baby carrots for our Roasted Carrots with Sage and Walnuts recipe really cut down on prep time. All we needed to do was open a bag. Shaking the pan a few times while the carrots roasted ensured even browning. For the walnuts, instead of toasting them in the same pan with the carrots, we used a dry skillet. Toasting the walnuts separately kept them away from the moisture of the carrots so they didn’t get soggy.
