- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 4 cups mixed greens (e.g., arugula, spinach)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the diced sweet potatoes on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes.
- While the sweet potatoes are roasting, wrap the beets in foil and place them in the oven. Roast for about 45-60 minutes or until easily pierced with a fork. Once done, let them cool, then peel and dice.
