200g Hommus (plain or flavoured)

Remove carrots from oven, add onion and toss gently to combine
Turn oven down to 175 degrees c, return vegetables to oven for 10 mins
Remove vegetables from oven, scatter almonds on top, don’t mix
Return to oven for 8 minutes
Meanwhile choose a nice plate and smear your hommus over the base
Remove the vegetables from the oven, grate orange zest over the ingredients whilst still in baking tray, scatter over the parsley
Now make a pretty pile of vegetables on top of your hommus, scatter with any remaining parsley and tuck in!
Recipe Note
- If you don’t have hommus, you can substitute for a different dip or yoghurt. I used beetroot hommus!
- You can use pretty much any nut in place of almonds. Hazelnuts, walnuts, pecans etc
