Ingredients

  • 2 golden beets, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces

  • 1 medium sweet potato, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

  • 2 medium parsnips, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces

  • 1 medium red onion, chopped

  • 3 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano

  • ½ 17.3 ounce package frozen puff pastry sheets (1 sheet), thawed

  • 6 ounce Fontina cheese, shredded (1 1/2 cups)

  • ¼ cup walnuts, finely chopped

  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. In a 15x10-inch baking pan combine beets, sweet potato, parsnips, and red onion. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss to coat. Roast, uncovered, 10 to 15 minutes, stirring once, until starting to brown.

  2. On a floured surface, roll pastry to an 11-inch square. Transfer to a large parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush all over with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle with 1 cup of the cheese, leaving a 1/2-inch edge. Top with roasted vegetable mixture, then remaining cheese and chopped nuts. Bake 15 minutes or until pastry is golden.

  3. Sprinkle flatbread with additional fresh oregano and/or lemon zest, if desired. Serve with lemon wedges.
