Shopping List
    For the Salad
  • 5 large carrots
  • 1 cup cooked farro (or brown rice)
  • 2 handfuls arugula
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup pine nuts (or sunflower seeds or slivered almonds)
  • salt and pepper, to taste For the Creamy Dressing
  • 1/4 cup pine nuts or slivered almonds
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 lime, juiced (reserve extra lime for serving)
  • 1/2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon miso paste
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon coriander
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Slice the carrots into wedges, each about the length and width of a finger. Toss the carrots with the 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes, or until soft. Stir after the first 15 minutes.
  2. Step 2: In the final 3 minutes of roasting, scatter the pine nuts (or sunflower seeds or almonds) over the carrots.
  3. Step 3: Meanwhile, prepare the dressing by combining the pine nuts or almonds, water, lime juice, olive oil, miso, cumin, coriander, and salt in a small blender or wide-mouthed mason jar. Blend (or use an immersion blender) until very creamy. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to loosen. Set aside.
  4. Step 4: Toss the warm carrots with the farro, arugula, and a splash of the dressing.
  5. Serve: Enjoy warm with an optional squeeze of lime juice on top. Any extra dressing can be refrigerated up to 5 days.
