Credit for this tasty recipe goes to greatist.com.

11INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 bunch skinny carrots, tops removed, peeled
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt

For pesto:

  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
  • 2 large kale leaves, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

DIRECTIONS:

  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
  • Coat carrots with oil and salt. Place on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes until well charred and easily pierced by a knife.
  • While carrots are roasting, make pesto by placing all ingredients except olive oil into a small mini chopper or blender. Grind on medium speed until coarse, then slowly pour in olive oil to emulsify into grainy pesto. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  • When carrots are cooked, remove from oven and cut in half lengthwise and crosswise. Dress with pesto to serve.
