Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh carrots
  • 1 pound fresh green beans
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and trim green beans by snapping off their stem ends. If using whole carrots, peel and cut them into roughly 1-inch thick diagonal pieces.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the prepared carrots and green beans with the honey glaze until evenly coated.
  4. Spread the glazed vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  5. Roast for about 20-25 minutes until the carrots are tender-crisp and the green beans are bright green. Broil for an additional 1-2 minutes for extra caramelization if desired.
  6. Let rest for a few minutes before serving.
