FAQ's
Yes! Green beans and carrots are delicious when they are cooked together.
I prefer roasted carrots, but you can boil them if you prefer.
Fresh green beans should be stored unwashed in a plastic bag in the fridge. This will help them stay fresh. Carrots should be stored wrapped in a damp paper towel in the fridge for up to three weeks.
Should you peel carrots before roasting them?
It's not necessary to peel carrots before roasting them, but I prefer to do so. If you are not peeling them, make sure you scrub them well.
Yes, you can! Just make sure to thaw them first. But, fresh really works best for this recipe.

- If you are using baby carrots instead of whole carrots you will still need to cut the carrots.
