    🍯 Why This Recipe Works

    1. It's easy to throw together. It looks impressive, but what's really impressive is how easy this recipe is to prep. Just a few moments of your time, and it'll be in the oven shortly. (A similar process to our Roasted Frozen Green Beans).
    2. It's great for the holidays. While I never intended on this being a "holiday recipe," I have found that more users favorite it around Easter and Thanksgiving. So serve it up with your next feast and enjoy!
    3. Minimal ingredients. Besides fresh onion, carrots, and brussel sprouts, you probably have the remaining ingredients (if not all of them) in your home already.

    🥘 Ingredients

    labeled ingredients needed to make roasted brussels sprouts and carrots.

    Lime juice- Adding in some lime juice will help to freshen up the veggies so that they taste great.

    Maple syrup- Use maple syrup as a natural sweetener to add a nice depth of flavor and caramelization.

    Carrots- You will need large carrots cut into coins, but similarly sized baby carrots work too.

    Brussel Sprouts- Use freshly washed, trimmed, and cut brussel sprouts. See notes below on how to prep brussel sprouts if needed. If you still have Brussel sprouts on hand be sure to check out our Instant Pot Brussel Sprouts and Bacon.

    For specific ingredients and measurements, please see the recipe card below.

    🔪 Instructions for Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Carrots

    Step 1: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.

    mix everything together in a mixing bowl and spread on a baking sheet, then roast.

    Step 2: Prep your veggies and place them in a mixing bowl. (Image 1).

    Step 3: Add in the remaining ingredients and toss together to coat evenly. (Image 2).

    Step 4: Lay your coated veggies on a parchment-lined baking sheet. (Image 3).

    Step 5: Bake for 25 minutes. (Image 4).

    Serve warm, and enjoy.

    🍴 Recipe Tips

    Brussels Sprouts Prep

    1. Washing and Draining: Begin by washing all the brussel sprouts thoroughly in a colander under cool running water. Once washed, transfer them to a towel to drain while you continue with the preparation.
    2. Trimming: Trim off the wooden-like bottom ends of the brussel sprouts.
    3. Slicing: With the brussel sprouts sitting upright on the cutting board, use a knife to slice them into halves if they are small, or quarter-sized pieces if they are larger.
    4. Handling Loose Leaves: If any loose leaves fall off while slicing, you can choose to discard them or include them in the recipe as desired.

    ⏲️ Make Ahead Instructions

    Preparation: Prepare the recipe according to instructions.

    Storage: Once cooked, let the dish cool completely. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

    Reheating: Before serving, reheat the dish in the oven or microwave until heated through. I think the extra day also helps the flavors to grow and taste even better, but that could just be me. Serve and enjoy!

    🍳 Reheating

    Microwave Method: Place a serving of the dish on a microwave-safe plate and heat for 1-2 minutes until warmed through.

    Oven Method: For larger servings, I like to spread everything out on a foil lined baking sheet and cook at 350°F for about 5 minutes or until heated through.

    💭 Recipe FAQs

    Do I need to wash brussel sprouts before roasting?

    Yes, brussel sprouts can trap dirt between the leaves and be a pain to clean properly. Letting them soak in water and then giving them a rinse in a colander can help to get sediments to sink, leaving you with a clean vegetable. I like to remove the outer two leaves too, just because they come off so easily.

    Do you peel carrots before roasting?

    This is optional. If you scrub and wash them well, the skin can safely stay on without worry. Peeling them is optional, but it does help to make them look a little prettier. Both options should be considered after the carrots are clean.

    Can I use baby carrots instead of large carrots?

    Yes. This recipe can use baby carrots (as-is, no cutting or peeling required), or it can use sliced whole large carrots. I prefer the recipe with sliced carrots because they're about the same size as the brussel sprouts, but baby carrots change the dish's overall appearance, and it looks pretty on your dinner table.
