Grilled Carrots

Just grilled carrots, really?

Yes. This recipe is a lovely reminder of how great produce cooked simply can taste wonderful. That being the case, I'll keep this brief. You do need a grill to render these carrots to their lovely tenderness and their grilled in flavor. You can roast in the oven too, sure, but grilling them is way tastier in my opinion, and grilling is just part of summer. (Or where I live, part of spring and fall too, and even a week or two of December).

So when it is your season to grill - remember you can keep it so simple. You can also serve these solo or with any sauces you like. Tahini mixed up with olive oil and lemon juice works well, as does a homemade ranch. Here's another thing that keeps this recipe easy - you could serve these carrots as a side to go with a veggie burger or a steak or as a fall appetizer leading into a bigger meal. They'll shine anywhere!
