These flavorful carrot fries are a great, healthy option if you're craving some fries but don't want all the oil involved in deep-frying. The carrots are sliced up, lightly tossed in olive oil and a bold blend of garlic, cumin, paprika, and cayenne, and popped in the oven until they're crispy.These are a great appetizer to serve at a party or you can put them out along side the meal of your choosing.
