JERK-SPICED CARROT DIP
Jerk seasoning breathes new life into potassium-rich carrots when they're doused with the spice and roasted until sweet and tender. The addition of coconut milk tempers the heat and also makes the dip ultra-creamy. Serve this with warm flatbread and a fun tropical drink to transport yourself to a sunny island.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and position an oven rack in the middle.
- Cut the carrots into 1-inch lengths. Cut any thick pieces in half lengthwise so that the carrot chunks are all about the same size. Gently toss the carrots, onion, garlic cloves, oil and jerk seasoning together on a large baking sheet. Place in the oven and bake until the largest vegetables are very tender and browned in parts, about 50 minutes, flipping once halfway through cooking. Remove from the oven and cool slightly. Discard any parts of the onion wedges that has become leathery and chewy after from roasting.
- Once cooled, remove the garlic cloves from their skins; place garlic in a food processor along with the carrots and onions, lime juice, coconut milk, salt and 2 tablespoons of water. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
- Transfer the dip to a small serving bowl and garnish with lime zest. Serve with flatbread and vegetables.
