ROASTED VEGETABLE LENTIL SALAD

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Chop all the veggies and spread on baking trays in a single layer. You may need 2 or 3 trays depending on the size. Drizzle them with the 1 tsp of olive oil (if it's easier, add all the chopped veggies to a large bowl and toss with the oil and spices, then add to trays) and sprinkle over the rosemary and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Use your hands to mix them all up until they're well-coated.
• Roast the veggies in the oven for 35-40 minutes until tender and browned.
• While the veggies are roasting. Bring the broth or water to a boil on the stovetop then add the lentils, cover and reduce heat to a light simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes until the lentils are tender but not mushy.
• Mix together the balsamic vinegar and maple syrup in a bowl or container.
• Once the veggies and lentils are cooked, either add everything to a large bowl and toss to mix, or divide the lentils, roasted vegetables and hemp seeds between 4 bowls or containers and drizzle the balsamic sauce over each serving. I prefer to assemble individually to ensure even distribution.
• Season with salt and pepper if desired and serve right away.

LENTIL SALAD WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place vegetables in one layer on 1 or 2 large rimmed baking pans, then toss with olive oil and salt. Place thyme and rosemary on top of vegetables, cover pans with foil and roast for 25 minutes. Remove foil, stir in bacon if using and back for 30 to 40 minutes or until vegetables are tender and golden all over.
• Meanwhile, In a large pot, combine lentils, 6 cuts water, garlic, bay leaft, salt and pepper and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, until lentils are tender.
• In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, mustard and salt. Then whisk in olive oil.
• Drain lentils and discard bay leaf; keep or discard garlic as you like. Toss lentils with half the sherry vinaigrette while still warm. Add more salt, olive oil and vinegar as needed.
• Toss radicchio with enough of remaining vinaigrette to lightly coat it and arrange it on a platter. Combine lentils and roasted vegetables, adding more vinaigrette to taste; spoon mixture on top of radicchio. Garnish with scallions, parsley, sea salt and black pepper. Squeeze tangerine or orange juice over the lentils and drizzle with more olive oil if needed.
