These roasted winter root vegetable bowls are cozy, colorful, and full of texture, exactly the kind of meal you crave when it is cold outside. Think caramelized vegetables, nutty grains, creamy lemon honey yogurt dressing, and just enough crunch and heat to keep every bite interesting.
This is the kind of flexible, feel-good dinner that disappears fast, so consider doubling the recipe if you want leftovers.

Directions
blank
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C).
- Toss the beets with 1 tablespoon olive oil and ¼ teaspoon salt. Place in the centre of a large sheet of foil, fold tightly to seal, and place directly on the oven rack or on a sheet pan.
- Roast for 45 to 55 minutes until a knife slides in easily. Carefully open the foil and let the beets steam off for 5 minutes.

Cook the grains according to package directions.
- While still warm, toss with a small drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Leave uncovered so steam escapes and the grains stay fluffy and defined.
blank
While the beets roast, toss the carrots and parsnips with the remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Spread in a single layer on a sheet pan. Roast at 400°F (205°C) for 30 to 35 minutes, flipping once, until tender with golden edges. Set aside to cool slightly.

Whisk together the yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, honey, salt and pepper until smooth. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking.
- If the dressing is too thick, add water 1 tablespoon at a time until creamy and drizzle friendly.
- If the dressing is too thin, whisk in ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard.
- Let rest for 5 minutes, then taste and adjust seasoning.

Thinly slice the celery using a mandoline, vegetable peeler, or sharp knife.
- Toss with a few drops of lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a light drizzle of olive oil. Let sit for 2 to 3 minutes so it softens slightly while staying crisp.

Toast pumpkin seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes until lightly puffed and fragrant. Set aside.
blank
Divide the cooked grains between two wide bowls.
- Arrange the roasted carrots, parsnips, and beets in loose sections rather than mixing completely. Add shaved celery and pickled hot peppers sparingly for contrast.
- Finish with feta crumbles and toasted pumpkin seeds.
- Drizzle generously with Lemon Honey Yogurt Dressing.
- Optional: finish with a final drizzle of olive oil and herbs or lemon zest.
