Ingredients

    10 cups (2.5 L) quinoa, cooked, held warm

    10 cups (2.5 L) whole red lentils, cooked, held warm

    5 cups (1.25 L) red currants, fresh or dried

    1 Tbsp (15 mL) cumin

    ½ Tbsp (7 mL) coriander

    1 tsp (5 mL) cinnamon

    10 cups (2.5 L) spiced cauliflower, roasted*

    5 cups (1.25 L) sliced almonds

    2 ½ cups (625 mL) flat leaf Italian parsley, roughly chopped

    10 oz (300 mL) white balsamic vinaigrette**


Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine warm quinoa, warm lentils, currants, cumin, coriander, and cinnamon together in a bowl and mix well.
  2. To plate this dish, evenly divide the lentil mixture among 10 bowls. Top with spiced cauliflower and almonds. Garnish with parsley and a drizzle of white balsamic vinaigrette.

*To prepare Spiced Cauliflower:
Combine 4 parts curry powder to 1 part turmeric with canola oil and lemon juice. Dress the cut cauliflower florets in the spice mix and roast at 425⁰F (220⁰C) for 10 minutes.

**To prepare White Balsamic vinaigrette:
Combine 2 parts avocado oil to 1 part white balsamic vinegar

Chef’s Tip:
Something as simple as rotating a seasonal apple or plant based cheese through this bowl will allow it to remain vegan but provide some delicious flavor pairings.
