1 pound carrots
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and peel the carrots. Boil in salted water until tender, about 10-15 minutes.
Drain the carrots and place them on a baking sheet.
Gently smash each carrot with a fork or the bottom of a glass.
Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.

Notes

For extra crunch, finish under the broiler for a minute or two but watch closely. Feel free to experiment with herbs for added flavor.
