To make the Roasted Beet and Carrot Salad, you will need the following ingredients:

Steps to make Roasted Beet and Carrot Salad

1	Preheat oven
Preheat the oven to 375 °F.
2	Prepare beets and carrots	1
On a large baking sheet, toss the beets and carrots with 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
3	Roast	35
Roast for 30-35 minutes until the vegetables are golden brown and tender.
4	Prepare dressing	1
In a jar, combine juice of 2 lemons, ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Screw the lid and shake well until combined. Set aside.
5	Make candied walnuts	6
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Heat a medium pan over medium heat. Add ½ cup walnuts and cook for about 2 minutes. Then add 3 tablespoons brown sugar, ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt. Toss the nuts with a spatula until the sugar melts and coats the nuts, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from heat once the sugar has melted. Quickly spread the nuts out on the prepared lined baking sheet to prevent them from drying in a clump. Let cool.
6	Assemble salad	2
To a large salad bowl, add 4 cups salad mix, roasted beets and carrots, and candied nuts. Drizzle with the prepared vinaigrette and toss to coat. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon hemp hearts over the salad.
7	Serve
Serve and enjoy!
