Ingredients
- 1 large head cauliflower cut into 1 inch florets
- 4 large carrots
- 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 cup cooked white beans drained and rinsed
- 5 fresh basil leaves chopped
- ¼ cup R.W. Knudsen Organic Carrot Juice
- 2 Tbsp. well-stirred creamy almond butter
- 1 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
- 1 tsp. sesame seeds for garnish
- 1 Tbsp. finely chopped fresh basil for garnish
- 1 tsp. finely chopped fresh parsley or thyme optional for garnish
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
-
Toss the cauliflower with 1 Tbsp. oil, sea salt and pepper and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 30 minutes or until tender. Remove from the oven and set aside.
-
Toss the carrots with the remaining 1 Tbsp. oil, sea salt and pepper and transfer to a separate rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 30-45 minutes (depending on how thick the carrots are) or until tender. Remove from the oven and set aside.
-
Combine the white beans, 5 fresh basil leaves, R.W. Knudsen Carrot Juice, almond butter and maple syrup in the food processor and puree until very smooth, about 3 minutes.
-
Season to taste with sea salt and pepper. Scrape down the sides, if needed. Transfer to a small bowl and drizzle over the roasted veggies on a serving platter. Serve immediately. Veggies and sauce will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days in sealed separate containers.
