Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce. Add walnuts to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in the middle of the oven until golden and fragrant, 4-5 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!) Transfer walnuts to a plate. Add 1 tbsp butter to the same parchment-lined baking sheet. Warm in the middle of the oven until butter melts, 1 min.
While walnuts toast, peel carrots and parsnip. Cut carrots and parsnip into thirds crosswise, then into 1/4-inch matchsticks. Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges. Strip 1 tsp rosemary leaves from stems, then roughly chop.
Add veggies, lemon juice, rosemary and maple syrup to the baking sheet with melted butter. Season with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper, then toss to combine. Roast in the top of the oven, stirring halfway through, until tender-crisp, 12-14 min.
Sprinkle veggies with lemon zest. Squeeze a lemon wedge over top, then toss to coat. Transfer veggies to a serving plate, then sprinkle walnuts and feta on top.

- Ease of prep: Several customers noted the recipe was straightforward, though some suggested pre-slicing the vegetables would make it quicker and easier.
- Suggestions: Consider reducing lemon to taste; roast vegetables longer for a softer texture and to avoid rubbery consistency.
