Preparation Steps

Roasting the Beets
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the beets thoroughly and trim off the tops and roots. Wrap each beet in aluminum foil, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the wrapped beets on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.

Assembling the Salad
Once the beets are roasted and cooled, unwrap them and peel off the skins. Cut the beets into wedges and place them in a serving bowl. Crumble feta cheese on top and drizzle the balsamic dressing over everything. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
