Roasted Carrots

I'm always looking for good healthy side dish to go with my entrees. I had some extra carrots in the fridge and decided to try roasting them. I was serving the carrots with black bean veggie burgers so I thought I should stick to the same flavors. I threw this little dish together and well it turned out pretty good.  

5-6 carrots 
1 tbs olive oil
1/4 tsp cumin
1 tbs lime juice
pinch of salt & pepper

Preheat the oven to 400. Peel your carrots and cut into 1/4 inch diagonal slices. Toss the carrots in olive oil then the seasoning and lime juice. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes. Make sure you stir up the carrots while they are cooking or else they will burn a little like in the picture below. It is quite a fun twist on carrots.
