Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- If the parsnips and carrots are very thick, cut them in half lengthwise. Slice each diagonally in 1-inch-thick slices. The vegetables will shrink while cooking, so don't make the pieces too small. Place the cut vegetables on a sheet pan. Add the olive oil, salt, and pepper and toss well. Roast for 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the vegetables, tossing occasionally, until the parsnips and carrots are just tender. Sprinkle with dill and serve hot.

ROASTED CARROTS AND PARSNIPS WITH ROSEMARY AND GARLIC
Parsnips are carrots' sweeter cousins, with a rich, nutty flavor. Though they don't pack the beta-carotene that their orange relatives offer, they're a good source of vitamin C and folacin. Because the core can be woody, I always remove it; this can be a tedious task but it's worth it.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Oil a sheet pan or a baking dish large enough to fit all of the vegetables in a single layer. Cut the carrots and parsnips into 3-inch lengths. Quarter the fat lengths, and cut the thin ends into halves so that the pieces are about the same size. Cut away the cores from the parsnips. Toss with the garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary sprigs, and olive oil until all of the vegetables are coated with oil.
- Spread in an even layer in the prepared pan or baking dish. Cover with foil and place in the oven for 30 minutes. Turn the heat down to 375ºF and uncover the pan. Stir gently, and continue to roast until lightly browned, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from the heat, and serve.

CIDER-ROASTED CARROTS AND PARSNIPS
These two root vegetables blend for a side dish with enough character to hold the spotlight next to grilled or roasted meat, poultry, or fish. The hint of vinegar, Dijon, honey, and thyme will make you forget it's actually good for you. Skip-a-step by lining the vegetable roasting pan with aluminum foil. To line the pan fast, turn pan upside down and press sheet of aluminum foil around it. With aluminum foil, you can use either shiny side up or dull side up. Remove the aluminum foil. Turn over, drop foil inside. Crimp edges and you're ready to cook. After the meal there is no extra cleanup. Just toss the foil.

ROASTED CARROTS AND PARSNIPS WITH MEYER LEMONS
A gift of a half dozen Meyer lemons sent me in search of recipes that would use this citrus to it's full advantage. Much sweeter than the common lemon, the flavor of Meyer lemons is a cross between a mandarin orange and a lemon. The zest is so tender, you can actually eat it. This recipe orginated on epicurious.com and includes my alterations to reduce the fat and calories without diminishing the flavors.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- In a small bowl, combine butter, orange zest, orange juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; stir well to combine. Set the citrus butter aside.
- Peel the carrots and parsnips and cut them lengthwise into long wedges, which that will get a bit browned and crisp at the ends. If I am roasting young carrots small enough to cook whole or halved lengthwise, I like to leave a half inch or so of the greens attached-looks pretty. Parsnips will cook at about the same rate as carrots, so cut them into similar-size pieces.
- On a rimmed baking sheet, toss vegetables with oil; season with 1 teaspoon salt and toss again. Spread the vegetables flat and roast until tender and lightly browned (and more than lightly browned on the thinner edges), tossing halfway through, 20 to 30 minutes. If they seem to be getting too browned before tender, sprinkle them with a little water and keep roasting.
- When vegetables are roasted, place in a warmed dish and spoon the citrus butter on, tossing them gently to melt the butter and coat the roots. Serve warm.
Tips:
- Choose the right vegetables: Look for firm, brightly colored carrots and parsnips. Avoid any that are bruised or have soft spots.
- Scrub the vegetables well: Use a vegetable brush to scrub the carrots and parsnips to remove any dirt or debris.
- Cut the vegetables evenly: Cut the carrots and parsnips into uniform pieces so that they cook evenly.
- Toss the vegetables in oil and seasonings: Before roasting, toss the vegetables in olive oil, salt, and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried herbs.
- Roast the vegetables at a high temperature: Roast the vegetables at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
- Serve the vegetables immediately: Roasted carrots and parsnips are best served immediately, while they are still hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Roasted carrots and parsnips are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfectly roasted carrots and parsnips that will be a hit at your next meal.
