1/2 teaspoon salt
The Vegetables:

a handful of baby carrots
2 beets, diced
The Dressing:
1/3 cup olive oil
3-4 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar

Preheat the oven to 425 °F, 220 °C.
Place the vegetables in a roasting pan. Drizzle with olive oil

Chop any large veggies into smaller pieces.
Cook the Lentils: Add the lentils in a saucepan and cover with 6 cups of water. Add the bayleaf and a half teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to medium. Simmer until tender. About 20 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl.
Make the Dressing: Combine all of the dressing ingredients in a small bowl or pitcher and whisk together.
Toss the lentils in half of the dressing. Transfer them to a platter in an even layer.
Toss the lentils in the remaining dressing and add more olive oil and salt if needed.

Looks so good. I love this vegetable dish. Definitely going to make it. My kind of meal. Will come in handy this lent! Thanks so much.
Looks really hearty but healthy!
Yes, it really is tasty too :)
Thanks for putting this on the website! I'd really like to make this. I'm trying to learn to like lentils because they're supposed to be healthy. The vinaigrette for this sounds gorgeous. Another recipe for my meatless Mondays! Yay! I'll try it with lentils, and if I still can't acquire a taste for lentils, I'll make it again with cannellini beans or something like that. Thanks for this!
Fantastic looking recipe and super easy. Definitely going to use and build off of this one for a week of lunches. Thank you!
Yummy!! 😋🕊
Your dishes are always Delicious, so i will be trying this one. You also explain all the steps very well, making it easy to recreate your recipes. Thank you😊
thanks so much for the kind words!!!
Looks delicious! Thank you for sharing 😋 ❤
French lentils are amazing! Not just for Lent!
What a health bomb❤
I love beets. Can you give more beet recipes
I think that would be really good with some ground lamb I think would go really well with that that’s just my opinion or you could use chicken too and marinate it in the seasoning the dressing
TY sweet Dimitroula mou! I'll try to make this. I only have regular lentils if it's ok.
Yes, they will work. The cooking time will probably be shorter :) Enjoy!! xoxo
This dish looks absolutely delicious Dimitra & I love lentils!
The Dijon mustard is a nice touch too.
Can’t wait to make this recipe☺️ Thank you!
It's so good! I hope that you enjoy it, Allie
Have you tried black lentils? I think they're great and I use them for my fakes now.
This looks good but I have a question. I'm not a fan of lentils, so I was wondering do you think I could use canned chickpeas instead, and mix them in with the other vegetables while cooking them? I had read you can roast canned chickpeas at the same temp and time. Just wondering.
I just noticed Dimitra's Dishes was listed on Eleanora's Market this past Saturday! Are you selling some homemade dishes or the items from your online shop (or both)? I'll have to stop by next time
We sell our olive oil, honey, and other specialty items from Greece :)
This recipe looks very good. However, I do not like mustard. Is there an alternative dressing that can be put on? That doesn’t include mustard?
Yes, absolutely lave out the mustard and add an extra splash of vinegar :) Enjoy!!
Looks delicious and will be trying this out . Can you tell me what are French lentils as I’ve only ever heard of brown and red lentils
Green and they hold up better
@@LindaC616 oh thank you , I’ve heard of green but never French lentils , thanks again
@@animallover1297 me neither! 😄
They're also known as petite green lentils. They're smaller and more compact and do not turn to mush :) Hope that helps. Enjoy!
@@DimitrasDishes thank you for replying, I’m in uk so they’re probably called green lentils here
I'm not finding this on the website. I love roasted vegetables!
I just added it :) Enjoy!!
I don’t like beets ( husband does ) , but man, this looks so good! Mushrooms?
Yes to the mushrooms!! Maybe roast the beets and serve them on the side for your husband :)
Substitution for the beets, Dimitra? Turnip? Parsnip?
Yes to both of those and as @lisab1026 suggested, mushrooms would be amazing in this salad too!! Enjoy :)
@@DimitrasDishes w9nderful, ty!
