The oven helps transform the sweet potatoes and cauliflower into flavorful browned bites that makes this one-bowl vegetarian meal shine. The lentils provide a hearty base, and the French variety are worth seeking out for this recipe. They taste more peppery and nutty, and they hold their shape when cooked much better than other varieties of lentils. They’ll take about 20 to 25 minutes to simmer, so start those once you put the vegetables in the oven. The stir-together tahini dressing is the perfect multi-flavored finishing touch thanks to the bright lemon, sweet honey, and savory, nutty tahini. You will want to drizzle it on everything.
