Rebecca Lindamood of Foodie with Family, that’s who. Rebecca’s new cookbook, The Ultimate Guide To Vegetable Side Dishes releases TOMORROW and you will want to get this in your hands just as soon as possible.

One of my favorite perks to food blogging is getting my hands on the latest cookbooks before they’re released. And this is one that I’ve been impatient to finally have at my fingertips!

This book is crammed with wonderful vegetable recipes that go beyond simply simmering them in a pot.

My family loves the sweet and spicy flavor combination, so Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots were an easy first choice to try from Rebecca’s cookbook. I wasn’t wrong, everyone ate up every last carrot.

I love the smell of fresh sweet carrots that are available at Farmer’s Markets right now. But don’t worry. Even the blandest grocery store carrot can taste great when it’s drenched in this Garlic Butter glaze and roasted.

This easy Side Dish recipe uses a simple cooking method and supporting ingredients to enhance every bit of flavor in the carrots.

If you like this recipe, Roasted Carrots with Garlic and Onion is another crowd pleaser at my house. And these simple Roasted Baby Carrots are a favorite every summer when carrots are at their best.

Roasting carrots is one of my favorite ways to draw out their sweetness and it’s my middle son’s favorite way to eat carrots.

The Ultimate Guide To Vegetable Side Dishes

The Ultimate Guide To Vegetable Side Dishes releases TOMORROW and you will want to get this in your hands just as soon as possible.

Far from being a vegetarian, Rebecca nevertheless has a deep understanding of vegetables. As a busy mom of five boys, she has liberally sprinkled hints for getting picking eaters to eat up the green (or orange) stuff on their plates.

Most of the Vegetable Side Dishes are elegant enough to serve grown-ups as well. The Ultimate Guide to Vegetable Side Dishes is not only full of tasty recipes like Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots but has lots of tips and hints on purchasing and storing fresh vegetables.

Rebecca’s first cookbook, Not Your Mama’s Canning Book, is definitely worth buying. Her Korean Barbecue Sauce from that book is a staple in my kitchen.

We also love trying recipes from her cookbook, Ready, Set, Dough! Beginner Breads for all Occasions. Rebecca takes the mystery out of homemade bread, making this a skill anyone can master. My favorite is Perfectly Toastable English Muffin Bread.

Vegetable Side Dishes

If you liked Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots, you will love roasting other vegetables. Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Bacon and Apples and Best Ever Roasted Cauliflower are fall and winter staples at my table.

Additionally, if you’re cooking for a crowd and need another vegetable side dish, Homemade Green Bean Casserole pairs well with roasted carrots.

Try Asparagus, Bacon, Corn and Sweet Potato Skillet and Marinated Tomatoes to use up your fall vegetable harvest.

You may have noticed that a spoonful of bacon helps the vegetables go down. Here’s a great bacon based vegetable side dish recipe from Rebecca: Easy Bacon Pea Salad. And I would be remiss if I didn’t mention one of my favorites, Veggie Lover’s Greek Pasta Salad.

Go ahead and get your copy of The Ultimate Guide to Vegetable Side Dishes by Rebecca Lindamood for this Garlic Butter Roasted Carrot recipe and so much more.

I’ve already bookmarked so many recipes to make! Just flipping through the book makes my mouth water.

Fresh carrots with a garlic butter glaze are a dreamy side dish

Regarding the tiny amount of Sriracha in this recipe – it is there to add a depth of flavor. There is no heat at all to this recipe as written.

However, if you’re like my crew and enjoy a bit of heat with pretty much everything? Add as much as you like! We tripled the hot sauce and my guys loved it.

    Can’t wait to try this. Have you tried making this recipe in a crockpot? If so, did you have to do anything different?

    • Mary Younkin says

      I have not tried this in the crock pot. One thing to note is that these are roasted carrots. The crock pot results will likely be that of more of a steamed carrot.
