Ingredients
-
2
bunches large carrots, about 15 or so
-
1/2 cup
good, hard, salty cheese like Pecorino or Parmesan (or any mix)
-
3 tablespoons
olive oil
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 325. Peel the carrots and slice them into coins of uniform thickness.
-
Toss the carrots with the olive oil and spread them on a baking sheet (or two if need be for space but you want them pretty close without much extra space). Sprinkle with the cheese and roast for about 30 minutes, until the cheese is browned and starting to crisp.
