Ingredients
Other than the vegetables, not much is added!
- 3 medium sized kohlrabi, peeled and cut into ½ inch pieces.
- 3 larger carrots peeled and cut into thick ½ inch pieces (so they don't cook way faster than the kohlrabi)
- Olive oil
- Kosher Salt
- Grated Parmesan cheese. Optional but highly recommended!
Prep. tip for veggies - Kohlrabi is a hard vegetable. I cut it in ½ then cut off the skin. It's easier than trying to peel (like you would a potato). Try to cut everything roughly the same thickness so everything cooks at the same time.
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Step 1
In a medium bowl, add olive oil and salt to the kohlrabi and carrots. Ensure there is a light coat of oil on the vegetables.
Step 2
Spray small baking sheet with no stick spray. Add seasoned vegetables and spread out, ensuring there is a little space between veggie pieces so they can roast (not piled because they will steam).

Storage
Stores well in the refrigerator for 3 days in a covered container or wrapped plate.
FAQs
Sure, this recipe works for kohlrabi only. Just use double the kohlrabi.
The perfect cooking time will depend on the amount made, how accurate your oven temperature is and what your personal preference is.
If you would like more crisp veggies, I would start testing veggies with a fork at the 10 minute point. Remove from oven when you think they are ready.
