Preheat oven to 425. Leave root and 1 inch of stem on beets; scrub with brush. Place beets on a baking sheet lined with foil; bake at 425 for 45 minutes or until tender. Cool slightly. Peel beets; cut into 8 wedges. Combine rind, greens, orange sections and feta in a large bowl. Combine juices, pepper, oil, salt and mustard; stir well with a whisk. Pour over salad mixture; toss to combine. Place salad mixture on each of 4 plates. Top with beets.
