Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Cut the zucchini, carrot and red pepper into 2 cm pieces and the onion into thick wedges.

  2. 2

    Toss the vegetables with half of the olive oil, half of the cumin and half of the salt and spread in a single layer on a lined baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Roast at 200 °C for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway, until tender and lightly browned at the edges.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile wash and roughly chop the spinach and dice the tomato; whisk the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, cumin and salt into a dressing.

  5. 5

    Toss the drained lentils with half of the dressing; add the hot roasted vegetables and spinach and toss until the spinach wilts slightly.

  6. 6

    Divide among bowls, add the tomato, drizzle with the remaining dressing and crumble the feta on top.
