6 carrots
1 Tbsp olive oil
juice & zest of one lime
1 tsp honey
½ tsp salt
1 tsp dried cilantro
Preheat oven to 400° F.
Cut the tops off the carrots. If they are large, cut them into halves or quarters lengthwise.
Combine the other ingredients to make a dressing and toss the carrots in the dressing to coat them. Place carrots on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. The carrots retain a tiny bit of crunch when they're done.

2 ¾ cup flour
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
3 Tbsp Olive oil
3 Tbsp Coconut oil or butter
1 ½ cup milk
Preheat oven to 450° F.
Stir the flour, baking powder and salt together. Cut in the butter, or grate it & stir it in. Stir in the milk. For whole wheat flour, you might need 1 or 2 more Tbsp of milk. It should be a very soft, sticky dough. Drop by large spoonfuls onto a greased or lined baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes. Makes 12.
Variations:
Reduce the salt to ½ tsp. Add a bit of honey or sugar, and other things like nuts, oats, and dried fruit to make scones.
Use olive oil instead of butter. Add 1 tsp rosemary and 1 tsp black pepper and roll out into thin pizza crusts (recipe is enough for 2 medium-large pizzas). It makes a nice crackery crust.
Make vegan by using coconut oil instead of butter and water instead of milk. The biscuits still turn out soft and fluffy.
Add ¾ cup of grated cheese.

A sweet potato or yam
olive oil
salt
pepper
Set the oven to 450° F.
Wash the sweet potato and make sure you dry it very well.
Cut the sweet potato into sticks and put them in a large bowl. Sprinkle salt and pepper onto them, tossing them to mix. Then add a small amount of olive oil, just enough to make them seem moist, tossing them to coat.
Pour them onto a baking sheet, drizzling any oil mixture that got to the bottom of the bowl.
Space the fries out so they are not touching (this will make them more crispy) and bake for 15 minutes, flip them, and bake for 10 more minutes.
Cook them just a few minutes less on each side if you want them less dark and crispy.
