Ingredients

1 lb heirloom rainbow carrots
2 tbsp harissa paste
2 tbsp wildflower honey
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup Greek feta
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
1 tsp lemon zest
1/4 cup toasted pistachios
fresh mint leaves

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Scrub the carrots clean, leaving an inch of green stem for visual appeal.

In a small bowl, whisk together the harissa paste, honey, and two tablespoons of olive oil.

Toss the carrots in this mixture until evenly coated, then spread them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and caramelized.

While the carrots roast, combine the feta, yogurt, and lemon zest in a food processor, blending until the texture is silky and smooth.

To serve, spread the whipped feta across a platter, top with the warm glazed carrots, and garnish generously with crushed toasted pistachios and fresh hand-torn mint leaves.
