Ingredients
  • 1 ½ pound sweet potato (1 large) peeled and cut in 1 inch cubes
  • 1 ½ pound carrots, peeled and cut in 1 inch slices
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
  • ¼ teaspoon red chili flakes, optional

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220C).
  2. Peel the sweet potato and carrot and cut into about 1 inch slices and cubes. Add them to a baking sheet.
  3. Pour over the olive oil and spices, stir well until evenly coated.
  4. Spread them out in an even, single layer. Bake for a total of about 30-40 minutes, stirring once. The sweet potatoes and carrots should be golden brown and crispy on the outside, and fork tender when done.
