¼ lb yellow beans – cut in half

1 onion – diced

½ lb greens

½ cup olive oil

In a mixing bowl toss beets and carrots with half of the olive oil and ½ teaspoon salt.  Put these vegetables on a sheet pan and place in the oven.  Reserve any extra oil left in the bowl.  Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until beets and carrots are tender.

In the same mixing bowl toss onion, garlic, beans, and peppers with remaining olive oil and salt.  Place these vegetables on a second baking sheet and bake 15 to 20 minutes.

Use a blender to blend together the tofu sour cream, mustard, and fresh herbs.  Add water to make a thick dressing.  Toss dressing, vegetables and greens together.  Add salt and pepper to taste
