Roasted Beet, Carrot, and Onion Salad
Ingredients
  • 12 ounce package baby carrots (2-1/2 cups)
  • 8 ounces  boiling onions, peeled
  • 12 ounces  baby beets, peeled if desired, or beets, peeled and cut up
  • 2 tablespoons  olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon  balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon  orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon  snipped fresh parsley or chives
  • 1/4 teaspoon  salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon  pepper
  • 2 cups  mixed baby greens
Directions

1. Toss together carrots and onions. Spread evenly in half of a 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Place beets in opposite half of pan. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over vegetables. Cover with foil and bake in a 400 degree F oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until tender. Transfer carrots and onions with a slotted spoon to a storage container; cover. Transfer beets to a separate storage container; cover.

2. Add 1 tablespoon hot water to baking pan, stirring to dislodge any browned bits. For dressing, combine liquid in pan, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the vinegar, orange juice, parsley or chives, salt, and pepper in a screw-top jar. Cover and shake to combine. Place greens in self-sealing plastic bag; seal.

3. Transport vegetables and dressing in a picnic basket. Transport greens in an insulated cooler with ice packs.

4. To serve, toss together the beets, carrots and onions, greens, and dressing. Makes 6 side-dish servings.
