    Thyme and Garlic Roasted Carrots with Honey Balsamic Drizzle

    December 5, 2016 Helene Trager-Kusman
    Love these carrots with goat cheese, pepitas and arugula.

    Love these carrots with goat cheese, pepitas and arugula.

    These are great on their own, or paired as a salad or toast. For salad toss with greens, a cruncy seed or nut and cheese such as goat or feta. For toast, mash some avocado/lime or lemon/salt and pepper atop your favorite toasted bread, then add the carrots on top to make a classic favorite a little more hearty!

    Ingredients:

    • Whole carrots

    • 3 Garlic cloves

    • Fresh thyme

    • Olive oil

    • Balsamic Vinegar

    • 1 Lemon

    • 1 tbsp raw honey

    • Salt/pepper

    • Optional: greens like arugula/microgreens to make salad

    • Optional: cheese like feta or goat cheese (if not preparing as vegan)

    • Optional: Crunch like pepitas or a nut

    • Optional: Bread for toast/avocado

    Method:

    • Cut carrots in half both ways (as if you were breaking them in half, then cut the halves lengthwise)

    • Chop garlic cloves

    • Toss olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic and thyme with carrots

    • Roast until carrots are fork teder at 400 degrees (approx. 40 minutes depending on their size)

    • Combine 1/4 cup balsamic with 1 cup olive oil, salt, pepper, juice of lemon and honey. Shake in a sealed container or whisk until emulsified.

    • Drizzle over carrots or toss together all ingredients including carrots if preparing as a salad.

    Cut down on time spent on weekly grocery trips by having frequently used staples on hand!

      Basil Avocado "Cream"

      July 29, 2016 Helene Trager-Kusman

      This is the perfect summer condiment when you need something creamy, yet light. It would work well as a dressing, sauce or spread.

      • Dressing for a raw salad with shaved vegetables

      • Spread to switch up your avo toast

      • Veggie/chip dip

      • "Sauce" for soba noodles or another pasta/ancient grain

      Avocado = instant creaminess

        Ingredients:

        • 1 ripe avocado

        • 1 bunch of fresh basil

        • Avocado oil

        • Salt/pepper

        • Juice of 2 limes

        • 2-4 garlic cloves (2 big or 4 little)

        Method:

        • Put all ingredients except for oil in a food processor. Once combined, drizzle oil until the consistency has thinned out into more of a sauce, rather than a guac looking thickness. Toss into a salad, pasta or grain dish.
