Spicy Carrot Fries

When it comes to fries, potato and sweet potato are common, but carrots also make really good fries!  I like to toss them with spices, roast until they are sweet and tender and then serve them with hummus for dipping. It is so good, and carrots are packed with nutrients and fiber!
