Paprika Roasted Carrot Fries
Carrots are one of my staple vegetables to have in my fridge because they last long, are so versatile, and are highly nutritious. They’re a good source of beta carotene, fiber, potassium, and even antioxidants.
Carrots are delicious in so many ways, but especially in fry form. These paprika roasted carrot fries are so flavorful and make the perfect side dish to any meal.
The carrots are peeled and chopped then tossed in a simple spice mixture. They’re roasted until crispy and topped with feta cheese, pomegranate seeds and fresh herbs.
It’s truly the most delicious flavor combination.
I always get asked for simple side dish recipes that are veggie focused, and this one may just be one of my favorites.
Serve them with a piece of salmon, roasted potatoes, and a fresh side salad for a delicious, balanced meal.
Carrot fries are the perfect way to change up your veggie game, and an easy way to pack in some extra vitamins and minerals to your meal. I can’t way for you all to try this recipe!

Thank you, Carri!
This looks amazing, can’t wait to try. Can you recommend a bake tone for an air fryer?
I would air fry on 400 for about 25 minutes! You can check it after that and add another 10 minutes or so if needed
Love this!! Lovely flavours, and my kids love it too.
Thank you, Elrien!
