Cooking Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Grate the Parmesan cheese and spread it into an even layer on the baking sheet.
  • Peel and trim the carrots. Cut them into equal-sized pieces and place them in a bowl. Add the chopped rosemary.

  • Roast for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese is golden and the carrots are tender. Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes and garnish with parsley if desired.
