How do you pick the best asparagus?

Green Leaf Thinner spears are more tender and cook faster, which I why I prefer them for this recipe. Thicker spears are more mature and may have a slightly stronger flavor, but take longer to cook. Opt for asparagus with a vibrant green color.

Can I use baby carrots instead?

Yes you can, but they may cook slightly faster than the larger carrot sticks so make sure to watch them more closely. (FYI- 3 large carrots is ~ ½ lb) Why add lemon juice after the veggies are roasted?
