If you're looking for an easy way to add more vegetables to your family's diet, look no further. Carrots have a sweetness that makes them naturally tasty, and the cumin in this recipe adds so much flavor, you never thought veggies could be so delicious. The folks at Seventh Generation shared this recipe with us.

Ingredients:

1 pound carrots
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon cumin
salt
pepper

How to Make It:

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Peel one pound of carrots and cut them into strips that look like French fries.

2. In a bowl, mix the olive oil with the cumin. Add a little more cumin if you like. Add carrots to the bowl and mix until coated.

3. Place carrots on a cookie sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

4. Roast for 10 minutes. Mix with a spatula, and continue cooking until the carrots are as crisp or as soft as you would like, 5 to 10 minutes more.
