4 ounces fresh goat cheese
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon zest and 2 teaspoons juice from 1 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 pound baby carrots, trimmed and peeled, handful of tender fronds reserved
1/2 pound fresh shell peas, shucked
1/2 pound sugar snap peas, string removed, cut on a bias into 1/2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
2 teaspoons toasted pumpkin seed or walnut oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 cup Marcona almonds, toasted and cut in half
4 teaspoons honey

1
Combine goat cheese, 2 tablespoon olive oil, and lemon zest in the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth, about 15 seconds, scraping down sides as necessary. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a small bowl. Store at room temperature until ready to use.
2
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and prepare an ice bath. Working with one vegetable at a time, blanch carrots, peas, and snap peas until just tender, about 3 minutes for the carrots and 2 minutes each for the peas and snap peas, transferring each to the ice bath to chill after blanching. Transfer chilled vegetables to a rimmed baking sheet lined with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to dry carefully.
3
Combine mustard and lemon juice in large bowl. Slowly whisk in remaining tablespoon olive oil and 2 teaspoons toasted pumpkin seed or walnut oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add dried vegetables and toss to coat.
4
To serve, smear some goat cheese onto each of four serving plates or one large platter. Top with salad. Sprinkle with toasted almonds. Drizzle with honey and a bit of toasted pumpkin seed or walnut oil. Rub carrot fronds in any dressing remaining in bowl and use to garnish. Serve immediately.
