Time 40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bunch small to medium carrots with tops, trimmed and halved lengthwise
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup sliced almonds
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 small shallot, thinly sliced
6 cups baby spinach (about 4 ounces)
1 head red-leaf lettuce, torn into large pieces
4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Place a baking sheet in the oven; preheat to 450 degrees F. Toss the carrots with 1 tablespoon olive oil, a big pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Spread the carrots on the hot pan and bake until lightly browned and tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toast the almonds in a small dry skillet over low heat, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Let cool.
  • Whisk the vinegar, honey, mustard and shallot in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil until combined. Add the spinach, lettuce and almonds and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the salad and carrots to a platter. Top with the goat cheese and chives.

This salad was just okay. The dressing was a bit too sweet for my taste.

I'm not sure why this recipe is called a salad. It's more like a warm vegetable dish.

I'm not usually a fan of goat cheese, but this salad changed my mind. The cheese added a creamy and tangy flavor that perfectly complemented the roasted carrots.
