Roasted beet, carrot, and green bean barley bowls with lettuce and goat cheese

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C), with racks positioned in the top and bottom thirds of the oven.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the beets, carrots, green beans, oil, garlic, rosemary, oregano, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper.
  3. Divide the vegetables between two rimmed baking sheets. Roast, tossing once and rotating the pans, until a beet is easily pierced with a fork, 25 to 30 minutes.
  4. Divide the lettuce and cooked pearl barley among four large, shallow bowls. Top evenly with the roasted vegetables and crumbled goat cheese.
  5. Drizzle each bowl with the Cidery Dijon Vinaigrette, season with additional salt and pepper, and serve.

Tips and Variations

  • Cut the vegetables evenly so they finish roasting at the same time.
  • Rotate the baking sheets halfway through roasting for consistent browning.
  • Add avocado, shredded chicken, tuna, or a hard-boiled egg for more protein.
  • For extra texture, add olives, toasted nuts, poppy seeds, or sesame seeds.
  • Refrigerate the roasted vegetables and barley separately for up to 4 days.
