Herbed Green Lentil Salad with Roasted Beets and Walnuts

Roasting beets brings out their natural sweetness, which pairs beautifully with earthy green lentils, toasted walnuts, and a generous handful of fresh parsley and mint in this Middle Eastern-inspired salad. A simple garlic-vinegar dressing ties it all together.
