Recipe Description

I say this about all my salad recipes but this Roasted Carrot Salad really has made it to the top of the list, although my kids may not agree as they’re not so keen on the blue cheese addition! But, if you love sharp and creamy cheese then this combination is heavenly.

Sliced carrots roasted with almond slices, garlic, salt and pepper and then tossed and coated in cider vinegar, honey, blue cheese, dried cranberries and arugula.

To make Roasted Carrot Salad, you will need the following ingredients:

For sure a quick and easy lunch but I wasn't full after eating it so I'd recommend making this if you're only partially hungry or you're just looking for a snack to munch on.
