I need to finish a few other commitments up today. A new monthly menu, inventory list, yearbook photo editing and a few other "to do" items I can't remember right now. I'm sure that I will remember much later tonight. ( when I don't want to do it anymore) Doesn't it always happen like that?So..... today I will simply present you with a photo and a recipe. A simple, delicious, easy to assemble mid-week recipe. I hope you enjoy!

I love it. I don't have red carrots but I could make do with just the regular ones. Thanks for sharing, Sarah!
This looks like quite a sophisticated dish. I love the deep colors and contrast the carrots add.
Beautiful colors here!
I wish I had five stomachs to prepare and taste all the great recipes you share with us in your blog!
A gorgeous side dish! Where do you get red carrots?
Gorgeous. 'Nuff said.
I don't think I've ever seen red carrots. Does Whole Foods carry them?
I love the looks of this dish; imagine I could make do with regular carrots.
Barbara and Natasha-
I found red carrots at the farmers market and I have seen them at the grocery store. However here we tend to get new products first, so maybe you will see them this summer in your areas! Whole foods is a great place to look for them too!
Yes. This is beautiful and simple. And bless you for including cilantro. It's just right. GREG
All my fav flavors--love cilantro,garbanzo and carrots-yum!!
oh that looks so healthy and delicious! I love dishes like this.
How did this one slip past my rss reader? I saw it on someone else's blog roll and rushed right over.Missing this would have been a tragedy. It is so my style. I can just see you picking out those carrots on a Sunny San Diego morning at the Farmers Market.
The honey vinaigrette you made sounds delicious and the perfect combination with the carrots. Thanks for sharing!
Just like everyone here, those red carrots caught my eye - and I'm not a carrot fan! However, I can imagine that roasting releases all that wonderful sweetness and that the honey vinaigrette only amplifies it. I'm all aboard for sweet, roasted veggies!
