Method

  • Cut up squash into 1 inch squares, mix with cut up onion and curry past and spread onto a cooking sheet, bake at 375F for 15-20 minutes until the squash is almost soft.
  • add the walnuts and cook until the squash is soft.
  • Remove from oven to cool.
  • mix together the olive oil, lime juice, honey, mustard and salt and pepper.
  • Add veggies and dressing to lentils along with the cilantro, let sit for an hour or so to blend flavours and enjoy!
