I am always looking for veggies to serve with curry dishes. I made this tonight to pair with butter chicken and rice/naan. I’ll admit that I was hesitant because this had flavors in it that I was less familiar with. It turned out delicious and I am excited to have leftovers for lunch tomorrow.

So glad I decided to try this for lunches this week – one bite and I was hooked. I portioned out the roasted carrots and black lentils in 4 containers. Added everything else as served – the pomegranate drizzle was fantastic. Didn’t think it would be enough dressing but found a generous one tablespoon coated everything beautifully. Also used more arugula per portion to use it up-also really like arugula!

A wonderful salad that was so beautiful on the plate with contrast from the carrots, lentil, and greens. The flavors were amazing – I did not skimp on the garam masala and am glad I added the full teaspoon the dressing. The pepitas added a nice crunch. I liked the addition of a little maple syrup to the carrots in case they were bitter. This recipe was easy to follow and fairly quick. Our only complaint was the need for extra dressing to drizzle, which is an easy fix for the next time we make this.

I LOVE this recipe. This is definitely going into my favorites and I can’t wait to Wow my book club friends with it.:^)

I made according to recipe but chopped up kale for the green (holds up well for a healthy next day lunch) and I made a pomegranate molasses (2c pomegranate juice, 1/4c sugar, 1T lemon juice – bring to boil, then simmer for about 45 min to reduce)which I think adds a beautiful dimension. Super easy to make. .
