Preparation

Preheat oven to 400\u00b0.
Lightly oil a shallow baking sheet. (The pan should be wide enough to hold all the food in a single layer, with a little space between the ingredients.)

Cut them into 2-inch chunks.
Wash potatoes, peel (if desired)* and cut into 3-inch chunks.
Place carrots and potatoes in baking pan and sprinkle with a little oil. Toss to lightly coat the vegetables.
Make room for the pork chops and add to the pan.
Sprinkle with salt, pepper and about 1 teaspoon of thyme, if using.
Bake 40 minutes.
