  • 200 g
    green or brown lentils
  • 500 g
    pumpkin (e.g. Hokkaido)
  • 4 tbsp
    olive oil
  • 100 g
    fresh raspberries
  • 2 tbsp
    honey
  • 3 tbsp
    red wine vinegar or raspberry vinegar
  • 200 g
    baby spinach
  • 100 g
    fresh goat’s cheese
  • salt, pepper
  • Optional
    roasted pecan nuts as topping

1
Cook the lentils according to the instructions on the pack until they’re al dente. Drain, season with 4 pinches of salt and 1 tbsp red wine vinegar, and set aside. Preheat the oven to 200°C (top/bottom heat).


2
Dice the pumpkin and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil and season with Balsamic Dressing Mix. Bake in the oven for 20–25 minutes until the pumpkin is soft and lightly browned. Remove from the oven and leave to cool.


3
While the pumpkin is in the oven, start the raspberry dressing. Put half of the fresh raspberries in a bowl and mash them with a fork. Add the remaining olive oil, honey and red wine vinegar and mix well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set the dressing aside.


4
Wash the spinach thoroughly and spin dry. In a large salad bowl, combine the cooked lentils, baked pumpkin and baby spinach. Pour over the raspberry dressing and mix gently so that the ingredients are well coated with the dressing.


5
Crumble the soft goat’s cheese and sprinkle over the salad. Use the remaining fresh raspberries as a garnish and scatter on top to serve.
