roasted carrot & chickpea salad

June 19, 2017 by Lovoni | Leave a Comment

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Garden fresh carrots are roasted, finished with a little honey and tossed with golden raisins, pepitas and fresh herbs. And if that isn’t delicious enough, it gets dolloped with a yogurt dressing and dappled with spicy chickpeas (garbanzo beans as they’re also referred to). 

 

Nutrient dense carrots are transformed when roasted and the natural sugars turn them candy-like. I’d be happy eating them as-is, but add the raisins, fresh herbs, pepitas and dressing and you’ve got yourself a pretty fabulous salad.

Of course before I even got to assemble the salad I’ve already scarfed down half the chickpeas. Okay, maybe not half, but who can resist them when they’re all warm and spicy? Not this girl. They look so unsuspecting. Oh well, there are far worse things I could be snacking on as I make dinner.

You can serve this as a side salad with some roasted or grilled chicken, pork or salmon but I like it just as is. Perfect for a meatless Monday. If you’re into that kind of thing. 

Cheers, Lovoni

Studio makeover. My studio needed a makeover & new Studio makeover. My studio needed a makeover & new windowsills after some water damage last year (we had to get the roof replaced). So it seemed like a good time to turn my studio into a more inspiring room that matched the rest of the house. I have props in cupboards around the house but wanted the ones I use the most in the studio. I used the top of a hutch (cupboard) I already had from @summerhousefarm & the bottom from @oldetymemarketplace. 
Still a few things to do but back at it tomorrow. I’m going to try and share the ‘before’ otherwise I’ll share it in my stories.
