Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound carrots remove the top part and cut into sticks
  • 1 pound asparagus trimmed the bottom part
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ cup goat cheese crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Lemon wedges to serve
  • Chopped fresh parsley to garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Trim the woody ends of the asparagus and set them aside. Wash the carrots and cut them into sticks similar in size to the asparagus (peeling is optional).
  • Place the carrots and asparagus on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  • Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized.
  • Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle crumbled goat cheese over the hot vegetables, allowing it to soften slightly. Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for an extra burst of flavor.
  • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving and enjoy!

Notes

  • For the best texture and flavor, serve the vegetables right after roasting.
  • Skip the goat cheese or use a plant-based alternative for a vegan-friendly version.
  • Use leftovers as a topping for salads, pasta, or grain bowls.
