Charred, Oven-Roasted Carrot Salad With Feta Cheese

Oven-roasted carrots get their caramelized sweetness from honey, balanced by a tangy dose of vinegar and fresh-squeezed lemon juice. When tossed with feta, the result is a refreshing, salty, and multi-textural alternative to staid or overly sweet vegetable preparations.

While wholly unnecessary, if you want to make the dish heftier, you can throw in some shredded roasted or rotisserie chicken. A sprinkle of minced parsley makes a nice addition, too.
