Maple Dijon Dressing is a versatile and flavorful dressing that can be used on salads, roasted vegetables, or even as a marinade for chicken or fish. It's also incredibly easy to make, with just a few simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand. This recipe uses pure maple syrup for a touch of sweetness, Dijon mustard for a bit of tang, and olive oil for a rich, nutty flavor. It's also seasoned with salt and pepper to taste. But if you're looking for something a little different, there are two variations on the classic recipe included in this article. The first variation adds crumbled bacon for a smoky, savory flavor. The second variation uses Greek yogurt instead of olive oil for a lighter, tangier dressing. No matter which variation you choose, you're sure to enjoy this delicious and easy-to-make Maple Dijon Dressing.

- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut the tops off the beets leaving about 2 inches of the stalk. Scrub beets well and wrap in foil with 2 beets of equal size in each packet.
- Place on a baking sheet and bake in preheated oven until beets yield to gentle pressure; approximately 1 hour. Remove from oven, unwrap and allow to cool. When cool enough to handle, slip the skins off of the beets; set aside.
- While the beets are roasting, place the maple syrup through lemon juice in a blender container. Blend until well combined. With blender running, drizzle in the olive oil and continue to blend until thickened.
- To assemble the salad, place the greens in a large bowl and drizzle with a small amount of dressing, toss to coat. Divide the greens among 6 chilled plates. Quarter beets or if large cut in eights and divide among the plates, top with onion rings, sprinkle feta and walnuts over all.
- Serve with addition dressing on the side.
