In a food processor, combine the beets, lemon zest and juice, garlic, walnuts, Parmesan, parsley and ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Pulse until roughly chopped, 5 to 10 pulses, scraping the bowl as needed. With the machine running, stream in the oil, then stop the machine. Transfer the pesto to a small bowl, then taste and season with salt and pepper.
