For the Vegetables

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Slice the fresh carrots and trim the green beans. Add the prepared vegetables to the bowl with the glaze, tossing them gently until they are evenly coated.
  4. Spread the coated carrots and green beans in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Roast for about 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  5. Once the vegetables are tender and beautifully caramelized, remove from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
