Preparation
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
On a cutting board, cut the root end of the beet so it lays flat on the surface. Place the beet on a piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with ¼ teaspoon of salt. Wrap the foil around the beet and pinch the top of the foil together until the beet is sealed in. Repeat with the other 2 beets.
On a sheet pan, place the onions, carrots, parsnips, and sweet potato.
Drizzle with 3 tablespoons of olive oil and season with ½ teaspoon of pepper and ½ teaspoon of salt. Toss the vegetables until coated and spread them evenly in the pan.
Create 3 circular spaces for the beets. Place the 3 beets on the pan.
Bake for about 1 hour until with vegetables begin to crisp and caramelize.
In a large bowl, add ½ cup of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and garlic powder, and whisk until emulsified. Add the parsley and season with salt and pepper, stirring to combine.
Add the mixed greens, roasted vegetables, and the beets to the bowl with the vinaigrette and toss until evenly incorporated.
Top with walnuts and feta. Serve and enjoy!
