Ingredients
  

1 pound baby carrots, trimmed

3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or ½ teaspoon dried thyme)

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 cup Greek yogurt

2 tablespoons tahini

Zest and juice of 1 orange

1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)

Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the baby carrots, balsamic vinegar, honey, olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss until the carrots are evenly coated.

      Spread the coated carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

        Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until tender and lightly caramelized, tossing halfway through for even cooking.

          While the carrots are roasting, prepare the orange tahini yogurt. In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, tahini, orange zest, orange juice, and maple syrup (if using). Stir until smooth and well combined. Adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt.

            Once the carrots are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.

              To serve, place a generous dollop of orange tahini yogurt on each plate. Top with roasted balsamic carrots and garnish with chopped parsley.
