Method

Roasted Rainbow Carrots

  1. 1

    Prep and roast

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, toss the chopped rainbow carrots with olive oil, honey, salt, pepper, and dried thyme until evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Spread the carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, turning once halfway through, until tender and caramelized.

    Remove from oven and let rest 5 minutes before serving on the veggie plates.

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until emulsified.

  3. 7

    Pour dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Chill for 10-15 minutes to meld flavors before serving.
