ROASTED CARROT AND AVOCADO SALAD
this carrot avocado salad is one of my favorite things to make in the summer, it’s super easy, healthy and fresh. the lightly spiced carrots with the citrus and creaminess of the avocado is a perfect match! – joanie
what you’ll need:
• 1 pound carrots, i don’t peel them, just cut off the top and wash.
• 2 avocados
• 2 lemons
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• olive oil
• sea salt
• micro greens
• crème fraîche
• optional: toasted pine nuts
• preheat oven to 375, place the carrots on a baking sheet, rub with olive oil, cumin and cinnamon. sprinkle with salt and roast for 30-35 minutes until tender (don’t under cook them, you want them to be soft!)
• for serving, cut the carrots in half, place avocado slices and micro greens on top, drizzle with olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, sea salt and top with crème fraîche.
ENJOY!!

This is a great recipe and seems a bit like a rift of what Smitten Kitchen posted just over a week ago — http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2016/05/roasted-carrots-with-avocado-and-yogurt/
Ohh, that one looks good too! A bit more advanced but I’ll have to try it. The carrot, avocado combo shows up in a lot of recipes, it’s so good!
