savory roasted carrots recipe with rosemary and garlic

Batch cooking vegetables is one of my favorite time-saving hacks. I love to roast baking sheets of broccoli, cauliflower, Brussel Sprouts, and carrots. I usually cook 2 – 3 pounds of vegetables per tray. It may seem like a lot, but it is amazing how fast veggies disappear when they are roasted! I usually use the leftover vegetables from dinner to meal prep lunches for the week.

I like to buy organic baby carrots at Costco and make this a roasted baby carrots recipe. Costco sells 4 pounds of baby carrots divided into 2-pound bags. I use one of the 2-pound bags in this recipe. To use bagged baby carrots, I drain off the water and then pat them dry before placing them on the baking sheet.

You can use full-size carrots in this recipe. To use full-size carrots, start by peeling the carrots. Then cut the carrots in half or quarters depending on how thick they are. Then cut them into 1 1/2 – 2 inch long pieces. You may need to adjust the cooking if your carrot pieces are thinner than baby carrots.

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
