INGREDIENTS:
1 bunch of carrots, tops intact
Juice of 1 1/2 lemon
Olive oil for drizzling, as needed
Salt to taste
2-3 Shallots, minced
DIRECTIONS:
Remove greens from the carrots and set aside. Clean carrots by removing any dark spots and rinsing well. Place in roasting pan.
Clean the carrot greens by rinsing well and removing and discovered leaves. Cut off the stalks, keeping only the leaves.
To make carrot top pesto, place the carrot greens, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt in a large food processor. Pulse to combine, adjusting ingredients as needed. Trust yourself!
Place the mixture in a bowl, covering with plastic wrap. Let it sit in the refrigerator until it is ready to add to the dish.
To prepare the roasted carrots, preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Cut each carrot in half lengthwise to allow even cooking. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly. Add the shallots, salt, and pepper to taste. Roast for 30 minutes.
Remove from the over and evenly place dollops of the pesto over the roasted carrots. Cook for an additional 10 minutes.
Serve and enjoy!
