Ingredients
- 3-4 medium organic carrots, washed and sliced into thin “French fry” batons
- 1 Natural Grocers Brand Organic Pasture-Raised Egg
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 1⁄2 cup grated organic Parmesan cheese
- half of an organic lime
- 1-2 tablespoons chopped organic cilantro
- Natural Grocers Brand Bulk seasonings
- 1⁄4 teaspoon Real Salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon Organic Ground Black Pepper
- 1 tablespoon Organic Taco Seasoning Blend
- Optional, for dipping
- sour cream
- guacamole
- salsa
- avocado, freshly sliced
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 400° F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Mix the egg and water in a large bowl. In a separate large bowl, add the cheese, salt, and pepper and mix to combine. Note: If you have two medium-to-large bowls that seal, use them! This makes quick and easy work of the mixing.
-
Place the carrot “fries” into the egg mixture and using either tongs or clean hands, toss the carrots to thoroughly coat; if you have a sealable container, put the carrots fries in and shake vigorously. Remove the carrots and place them in the bowl with the cheese. Toss vigorously until the carrots are evenly coated; again, if you are using a sealable container, place the carrots in and shake, shake, shake! Using the tongs, place the carrots on the baking sheet, separating so they don’t touch.
-
Roast the carrots for 10-15 minutes, turning once. They should be lightly browned but still a bit crunchy.
-
Place the carrots on a serving dish, sprinkle lightly with the taco seasoning, add a squirt of lime juice, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro. Serve warm with dipping sauces on the side.
