Instructions
- Step 1
Start by roasting the veggies: preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the cauliflower and carrots on a large baking sheet and toss together with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, maple syrup, salt, cumin, paprika, and onion powder. Spread in an even layer and roast in the oven for 30 minutes, tossing halfway.
- Step 2
Meanwhile, making the dressing: In a blender or food processor, combine the dressing ingredients minus the mayo. Blend for 2 minutes until smooth and creamy. Add in the mayo and blend for another 20-30 seconds. Set aside.
- Step 3
Assemble the salad: once the veggies are done, combine them in a large bowl with the cooked lentils, green onions, parsley, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and flaky sea salt. Toss to combine.
- Step 4
Serve: spread a few tablespoons of the green goddess dressing on a large plate. Top with the lentil salad and garnish with olive oil + salt and pepper to taste as well as the optional pinenuts. ENJOY!
Notes
- Step 5
I find that green or brown lentils work best in this recipe. Red lentils will end up too mushy so I don’t recommend.
