Instructions to make Smokey lentils with roasted veg:
  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Chop the squash, peel the carrots (if you’re using skinny ones leave them whole. If not, chop them into pieces, around the same size as the squash). Add it to a roasting tray with the shallots and garlic (leave the skin on). If using onion, remove the skin and cut into quarters. Add the bay, thyme, seasoning and drizzle with oil. Put in the over for 30 mins.
  2. Meanwhile, cook the lentils according to the packet. Finely chop the spring onions and basil. Then add all three to a bowl with half a tsp chipotle paste and mix together.
  3. Season the lentils with a pinch of salt and top with sunflower seeds (optional)
  4. After 30 mins remove the veg from the oven, mix in 1 tsp chipotle paste, the mushrooms and mix together. Return to the oven for another 15 minutes.
  5. Once cooked, remove the veg. Squeeze the garlic and shallots out of their skins (they’ll be hot so use the back of a spoon if needed and mix back into the veg.
  6. Serve the veg on a bed of lentils. Top with a tbsp of Greek yogurt and a grating of Parmesan (optional)

Keep it vegan or add a drizzle of plain yogurt for extra richness. Remove from the oven and squeeze a lime wedge over each baking sheet. This salad of lentils with roasted butternut squash, carrots, and onions gets plated over a bed of creamy, lemon-scented Greek yogurt—so with each bite, you get the flavors of sweet caramelized veggies, earthy-nutty legumes, and tangy yogurt. We love the firm texture of French green lentils, but you can also use standard brown lentils. Once soup is done, add the balsamic, taste for flavor, adding salt and pepper to taste.
