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

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes. Slice the red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into similar-sized pieces.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are tender and lightly caramelized.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

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.

Step 7

Sprinkle the salad with crumbled feta cheese and chopped walnuts for added texture and flavor.

Step 8

Drizzle the balsamic honey dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Step 9

Serve the salad warm, enjoying the contrast of flavors and textures!
