Savory Herb-Infused Carrot Medley

This Savory Herb-Infused Carrot Medley is a delightful side dish that combines the natural sweetness of carrots with a medley of aromatic herbs and spices. The infusion of thyme, basil, and a hint of cinnamon creates a warm and inviting flavor profile, while the dehydrated onions and garlic powder add depth. Perfectly cooked, these carrots are both visually appealing and packed with nutrients, making them an excellent complement to any main course.
