Ingredients
- 1 bunch rainbow carrots peeled and cut lenghtwise
- 5 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons agave nectar
- 1 lemon juiced
- 1 bunch broccolini
- 1 garlic clove finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- pine nuts roasted is optional
- parsley Finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven at 400F.
- On a cookie sheet drizzle the rainbow carrots with 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Place the cut side down on the cookie sheet, season lightly with salt. Roast for about 10 minutes or until lightly browned and slightly soft.
- Remove from the oven, place in a bowl, and drizzle some of the agave nectar and some of the lemon juice (taste and adjust to your taste liking).
- Meanwhile steam the broccolini for about 3 -4 minutes, or still crispy. Remove and place in a bowl of ice to stop the cooking process. Discard the water, dry and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with garlic and the balsamic vinegar.
- Toss with the carrots. Garnish with pine nuts and parsley.
Notes
- Whit this recipe, I recommend using honey if you do not have agave nectar.
- This delicious broccolini and carrots store well in an airtight glass container for a few days in the refrigerator.
- Of course, you can replace broccolini with French beans.
- Instead of the pine nuts, add chopped pistachios, pecans, walnuts, or almonds.
- If agave is not easy to find where you live, it can be substituted with: honey, maple syrup, simple syrup, and white sugar.
- Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes just before serving to add a heat punch to your vegetables.
