Ingredients

• Carrots: Loaded with fiber, Vitamin A, and beta-carotene, carrots are crunchy and delicious with any meal.
• Green Beans: Surprisingly enough, green beans are high in calcium as well as Vitamin K, and they pair wonderfully with carrots.
• Za’atar: A delicious blend of dried herbs and ،es, like oregano, thyme, coriander, and ،in, this middle-eastern ،e is one of my favorites.
• Olive Oil: The perfect, healthy ، to cook with.

How to Make Za’atar Roasted Carrots and Green Beans

First things first, ،l and cut your carrots into equal sized ،s. Then place your carrots and green beans in separate bowls or plastic bags. Drizzle each with olive oil.

Next, sprinkle each with some kosher salt and black pepper for flavor.

Then you’ll season each with the za’atar. I love roasting veggies in this ،e blend. It has a delicious, earthy, nutty flavor profile. Once your carrots and green beans are both seasoned, give them a good toss or shake in the bag they’re in.

Lay them out on 2 separate sheet pans in a single layer, or one if you don’t mind removing the green beans earlier, and roast in the oven at 425 degrees. It’s finished when slightly browned and softened.

Serve garnished with some lemon juice, lemon zest, or sesame seeds, and enjoy your Za’atar Roasted Carrots and Green Beans!

Switch Things up

• Switch some veggies. Use broccoli, asparagus, or Brussels sprouts in place of the carrots or green beans.
• Do a sheet pan meal. Za’atar tastes great on chicken, make it a one pan meal and cook it all at once!
