Pinned! I love roasted veggies, especially with balsamic. This is such a lovely, spring-y dish! It would be perfect for Easter dinner, too!
Thank you, Kelsie! This dish would definitely be great for Easter. Hope you enjoy it! 🙂
I absolutely cannot wait until spring vegetables get here. Haven’t even seen a daffodil yet…
I love that your recipe maintains the integrity of the asparagus and carrots. The balsamic must add a nice sweetness even when using not fresh from the farm vegetables. Think I’ll try this with brussels sprouts tonight because I just can’t wait!
Thank you, Romain! Great minds think alike! I just made this recipe with brussel sprouts the other day. It was SO good! Enjoy! 🙂
I can’t wait for the fresh, spring vegetables to arrive! I appreciate the simple, classic preparation – not too many flavors so that the ones that are there can truly standout. Looks like a perfect Easter side dish, too!
Thank you so much, Alison! 🙂
Such a simple yet delicious way to enjoy spring veggies !!!
Thank you so much, Maria!
I love how simple and quick this recipe is! Asparagus is a sure sign of spring and I love how this simple preparation really lets the delicious flavor of the veggies shine through, thanks for a beautiful recipe!
Thank you so much, Erica! Totally agree– asparagus is the ultimate spring vegetable! My goal with this recipe was definitely to keep things simple and let the natural flavors of the veggies come through. Thanks again!
spring asparagus is so delicious 😋 and i love olive oil and balsamic vinegar on everything! it’s especially tasty on roasted red bell peppers :3
Thank you, Heather! This recipe would actually work really well with some thin slices of red bell peppers added to the mix. I’ll have to try that. Thanks for the inspiration! 🙂
Mmm I can totally taste the caramelized balsamic with the sweet flavours of the asparagus and carrots. This is such a flavourful and simple side dish. I really need to start making these more, I eat WAY too much meat. Need to start adding veg in, especially when it’s so flavourful and this easy! 🙂
Thank you so much, Joyce! I have the same issue. It’s so easy to ignore the vegetables, when you’ve spent half the day perfecting the meat. That’s what I love so much about this dish. It’s easy, flavorful, and complements pretty much any meat dish perfectly. It’s a great place to start for getting more veggies in your diet– especially, since you can use virtually any veggie in this dish and it will taste delicious. Hope this inspires you to add more veggies to your diet (it inspired me!)
