Roasted Carrot, Orange & Avocado Salad
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Peel the carrots and cut on the bias into long slices about 1/2 to 1/2 inch thick. Put the carrots on a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with the ground coriander and fennel seeds, minced garlic and salt to taste and toss well. Roast at 400 F for 20 to 25 minutes until the carrots are tender. This can be done in advance.

While the carrots are roasting prepare the oranges and avocados. Cut the tops and bottoms off the oranges, then peel them, using the knife and cutting down the top to bottom all around the orange; slice the oranges across the grain forming pin wheels of about 1/3 inch thick. Halve the avocados, remove the pit and then using a large soup spoon remove the flesh from the skin. Cut each avocado half into about 6 wedges.

When the carrots are done, assemble on the salad plates, arranging the carrot slices, orange slices and avocado wedges. Put a few cilantro leaves on each salad and drizzle with just a little olive oil. Drizzle with just a little lime juice and then dust with smoked paprika and sea salt. This can also be made into a salad with adding salad greens, cherry tomatoes and saving the avocado at the very end.

I love this salad, for although you may have it year round, it looks more apt in the fall due to the beautiful colors of beets and carrots, like autumn leaves.

This is a twist on carrot salad. I needed something a bit different and began experimenting with other ingredients. When left to marinate the flavors marry perfectly!

Roasted sweet potato and avocado salad Roasted sweet potato and avocado salad
This is a salad that can be eaten alone or with a lighter main course. The warm roasted sweet potato works well with avocado and any salad ingredients in your fridge. For this recipe I also had some fresh apricots which I peeled, sliced thinly and added. A light sprinkling of Mirin or squeeze of lemon juice is really all the dressing required.

Hello!!! Did everyone have a good weekend? I hope so and I do hope that all is well…We had a very nice weekend it was the first one that we went out in a long long long time, we went and visited some friends who have moved to Germany from Greece. Our friend actually is a base player in a group and they were having a live concert on Saturday night so this gave us the opportunity to hear him live again!! I think its been 10 years since the last time I have been to a live concert. Germany had wonderful weather this weekend, Saturday night was just lovely, warm, stars were out, people dancing, and having a great time. 🙂Sunday we were invited over to some other friends house for lunch, the food was delicious BBQ, 🙂 we got a chance to catch up on everything and well we just had a lovely time. 😉 Just a small shout out thanking Katerina and hubby so much for inviting us to their home and their wonderful hospitality. (Before I forget Charlie had a great time too!!!) 🙂Since food was way to much this weekend, today’s lunch is light and salad is the only option. I ate Carrot Salad for the first time at my mother-in-laws :)…I remember that she placed it on the table and I made some sort of facial expression because she caught it hahahahahahah…and she remarked..:) Don’t get me wrong I love my mother-in-law, I have been very lucky she is like a second mom to me, anyway because I love salad I was absolutely going to try it, and have been making it myself since then. 🙂
