ROASTED HEIRLOOM CARROT SALAD WITH LEMON YOGURT SAUCE

This gourmet-inspired vegetarian salad makes a perfect lunch or a hearty side dish that’s both healthy and satisfying. Don’t be daunted by the ingredients list – there’s not much to do to prepare, but everything put together makes for a great combination of flavours and texture. Sprinkle a little bit of Kelp Sea Salt Flakes at the table to finish this delicious dish!

Heirloom carrots are not just gorgeous to look at, but they are nutrient dense and make for a great addition to a varied and healthy diet. Here’s what you’re getting when you “eat the rainbow” (source: Time Magazine: Eat This Now: Rainbow Carrots by Alexandra Sifferlin):

  • Orange: Beta and alpha carotene pigment. This promotes vitamin A production by the body, which is essential for healthy eyes.
  • Purple: Anthocyanin, beta and alpha carotene pigment. Purple carrots typically have an orange core, and their pigment-related nutrients may provide additional vitamin A and prevent heart disease.
  • Red: Lycopene and beta-carotene pigment. Lycopene is the same red pigment that gives tomatoes their deep color and is linked to a lower risk of certain cancers, such as prostate cancer.
  • Yellow: Xanthophykks and lutein. Both are linked to cancer prevention and better eye health.
  • White: The nutrients don’t come from the pigment but from the fiber, which promotes healthy digestion.
