Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Chop the potatoes and carrots into 1 inch pieces. Slice any very thick carrots in half vertically.
- Step 2: Place the potatoes on a large baking sheet and toss with 1/2 tablespoon of the olive oil. Roast for 20 minutes.
- Step 3: Add the carrots, drained beans, whole garlic cloves and mushrooms to the pan with the potatoes. Toss everything together with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for 15 more minutes.
- Step 4: Sprinkle the pine nuts over the roasted vegetables and cook for an additional 4 to 5 minutes, or until the nuts are toasted. Remove the sheet pan from the oven. When cool enough to handle, squeeze the soft roasted garlic cloves out of their peel and into the vegetables.
- Step 5: Stir together the Pesto Vinaigrette.
- Serve: Toss together the roasted vegetables and arugula with a generous drizzle of pesto vinaigrette. Enjoy with any extra vinaigrette on the side.
