Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 12 carrots, slice larger ones in half
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp fresh thyme
  • 1 1/2 tsp hot honey
  • 2/3 cup ricotta or vegan cheese
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

Prepare Ingredients:

  • Preheat oven to 400ºF. Trim the greens from the carrots and scrub the dirt off with a paper towel.

Roast the Carrots:

  • Add the carrots to a roasting pan and top with olive oil, salt, and thyme. Toss and coat.
  • Roast for 20 to 30 mins until crispy

Prepare the Whipped Ricotta:

  • In a food processor, combine the ricotta cheese ingredients. If you’d like to make this dairy free you can use a vegan option! Pulse until smooth and creamy. If too thick, add additional extra virgin olive oil until your desired consistency is reached. The whipped ricotta should be spreadable. Set aside at room temperature until the carrots have finished roasting.
  • To plate spread the ricotta on the plate first, then top with the carrots, and garnish with hot honey, chopped pistachios and additional thyme.
