Ingredients

Salad

4 large carrots cut into 1/4 inch thick fry-shapes and ends trimmed
1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp. dried rosemary
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 container Earthbound Farm Rosé Blend
1 large Granny Smith apple diced
1 cucumber diced
1 cup fresh raspberries
1 cup halved grape tomatoes
1/2 cup finely chopped purple cabbage
1/4 cup sliced red onion

Dressing

4 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 clove garlic minced (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the carrot fries on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with 1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, rosemary, sea salt, and pepper. Toss to coat and bake for 15-17 minutes or until the carrots are tender. Cook time will depend on how large and thick the carrots are.

In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients and pour over the salad ingredients in the serving bowl.
Add the roasted carrots and serve immediately. Store leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
