Ingredients

1 head cauliflower, chopped into bite-sized pieces

4 tablespoons olive oil, divided

¼ teaspoon salt

⅛ teaspoon pepper

1 cup freekeh

⅔ cup black lentils

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons lemon juice

⅔ cup dried cherries

⅓ cup pistachios

Optional garnish: chopped fresh mint

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Toss cauliflower with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and the salt and pepper, then roast until golden-brown, about 30 minutes.
  2. While the cauliflower is cooking cook freekeh according to package instructions.
  3. In a separate pot, cover lentils with a few inches of water, and cook according to package instructions.
  4. To make the dressing, whisk together the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil with the Dijon mustard and lemon juice.
  5. Drain off any excess water from the freekeh and lentils, then combine in a large mixing bowl and toss with cooked cauliflower, dried cherries, pistachios, and dressing. Taste and adjust seasoning. Garnish with chopped fresh mint, if desired.
