Last week, I had the utmost pleasure of roasting carrots for the first time -- and they turned out DELICIOUS!
Today, I checked the packaging, and I realized it was partly because of the quality of the produce!
Here is the brand and product: https://calorganicfarms.com/products/cello-carrots/
Cal-Organic Farms, 1984; 32 oz 2lb Organic Carrots.
The dish took at most 20 min to assemble, and I loved how I felt after consuming. You know when you eat really clean and healthy, and it tastes high-vibrational, and afterwards you feel high-vibrational? That's how I felt, and I'm super excited to share it with you:
Recipe:
Tools:
Vegetable peeler
Oven-safe baking dish
Chef's knife
Cutting board
Washing station
Yo clean clean hands!!!
Dishes
A small spoon to mix the sauce
Dish components:
Roasted Carrots
Allium-y Sauce
Freshly chopped high-quality greens
Ingredients:
For Roast:
3 Cal-Organic Carrots, peeled, cut into thirds, then each third cut lengthwise into 2-3 thick pieces (this is what shape I desired, but you can cut it anyway you like)
1/2 of a Cara Cara Orange (separated into its segments)
A dash of oven-appropriate oil (I used a neutral flavor vegetable oil, but if you need to be more picky about your lipid choice, check out my ever-evolving nutrition/food research project here for some recommendations, which I update on Fridays.)
Freshly cracked black peppercorns (one of my favorite spices of all time, but you can use any spice flavor profile you like!)
Sprinkle of sea salt (Brands Jacobsen, Diamond Kosher Salt Flakes were recommended by Paul Saladino in this ONE independent analysis by him -- but again, like he says, it was just ONE analysis.)
For the side allium-y sauce:
2 dollops of Philadelphia's French Onion-flavour Whipped Cream Cheese
Freshly cracked black peppercorn
Chopped green onion (I pulled it from the garden)
A bit of salt
A bed of greens:
I used parts of red-leaf lettuce I had on hand, freshly chopped
Another great type of lettuce I recommend is the Carmona Red Butterhead Lettuce - which I tried out this past year, and is SO great!
Directions:
Toss raw carrot sticks in oil to coat, arrange spaced evenly in an oven-safe baking dish
Add in Cara Cara orange slices between carrot sticks
Bake at 425 deg F for about 12-18 min (depending on your oven, humidity levels, surface area of pan, time of day, when Age of Aquarius is starting, yadda yadda yadda)
While carrots are baking, prepare the sauce in a small bowl or dish, I mixed with a small serving spoon.
Freshly chop all the salad greens of your choice
Once roasting is complete, plate carrots, oranges, sauce and salad for a beautiful colorful trifecta of orange, speckled white, and green, and then SERVE / bon appétit!!!
(If you'd like more protein, I'd recommend slices of your favorite steak/other cuts of meat. Personally, I love a good NY Strip Steak, due to the cap of fat on its edge, that I learned to baste in rosemary, garlic, butter)

Lyrics:
Ooo
Ooo
Friday night, last orders at the pub
Get in the car, and drive to the club
There's a massive crowd outside, so we get into the queue
It's quarter past eleven now; we won't get in till quarter two
It's quarter two and we get to the front
Girl on a guest list dressed like a cunt
She asked security to check in my shoes
You can play this game with me, but you know you're gonna lose
Looked me up and down
I don't make a sound
There's a lesson that I want you to learn
It's if you're gonna play with fire, then you're gonna get burned
Don't try and test me 'cause you'll get a reaction
Another drink and I'm ready for action
I don't know who you think you are
But making people scared won't get you very far
Ooo
Ooo
In the club, make our way to the bar
Good dancing, love, but you should have worn a bra
Guy on the mike, and he's making too much noise
There's these girls in the corner wanting attention from the boys
I see these girls, and they're shouting through the crowd
Don't understand why they're being really loud
Make their way over to me and try to push me out the way
I push her back; she looks at me and says
"What you tryna say?"
Looked me up and down
I don't make a sound
There's a lesson that I want you to learn
It's if you're gonna play with fire, then you're gonna get burned
Don't try and test me 'cause you'll get a reaction
Another drink and I'm ready for action
I don't know who you think you are
But making people scared won't get you very far
Don't try and test me 'cause you'll get a reaction
Another drink and I'm ready for action
I don't know who you think you are
But making people scared won't get you very far
Ooo
Ooo
