Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potato
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 medium zucchini
- 1 medium red onion
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 5 cups mixed baby greens
- 0.5 cup feta cheese
- 0.25 cup walnuts
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes. Slice the red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into similar-sized pieces.
Spread the chopped vegetables onto the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together to coat evenly.
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are tender and lightly caramelized.
While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the dressing by whisking together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, and a pinch of salt and black pepper in a small bowl.
Place the mixed baby greens in a large serving bowl. Once the roasted vegetables are done, allow them to cool slightly, then add them on top of the greens.
Sprinkle the salad with crumbled feta cheese and chopped walnuts for added texture and flavor.
Drizzle the balsamic honey dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Serve the salad warm, enjoying the contrast of flavors and textures!
