Roasted Carrots and Chickpeas With Herby Cashew Cream

Carrots are often relegated to supporting roles in soups, braises, and stews that take advantage of their sweetness but hardly make them the star. This salad lets them shine, roasted alongside chickpeas and taken to the next level by an herbaceous cashew cream. Blitzing the base cashew cream recipe with dill, parsley, and scallions brings fresh balance to the carrots. Serve extra sauce as a dip with crudités or grilled bread. —Hetty McKinnon

This is part of our meal planning package, where one recipe can become three quick weeknight meals. Use the rest of your cashew cream to make Broccoli and Cashew Cream Soup or Creamy Cashew Udon With Crispy Mushrooms.
