Warm Lentil and Brussels Sprout Salad With Roasted Radicchio [Vegan]
With its slightly astringent bite, radicchio isn’t a vegetable I cooked with frequently. Recently, though, I stumbled across a method for cooking it that promised to transform it into something much more palatable: roasting! Roasting radicchio brings out its sweetness, especially in the tender inner leaves. The outer leaves retain... Read More

How to Prepare Warm Lentil and Brussels Sprout Salad With Roasted Radicchio [Vegan]
- Add the water to a medium sauce pot and heat on high. Preheat oven to 425˚. Prepare a short-rimmed baking pan by spraying it with oil or lining it with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the radicchio marinade: olive oil, maple syrup, garlic, and salt. Set aside.
- Quarter the radicchio by trimming the woody bottom off and cutting the radicchio into four wedges. Using a pastry brush, coat all of the exposed surfaces of each wedge with the olive oil marinade. Place cut-side down on the baking pan and place in the oven while you prep the Brussels sprouts.
- When the water boils, add the lentils, cover the pot, and turn the heat down to a simmer.
- Roughly quarter each Brussels sprout (or halve them if they’re particularly small). You don’t have to use uniform precision; just make sure each piece is roughly the same size. Add to a bowl and toss with the olive oil, garlic, salt, and paprika until well coated. Remove the baking pan with the radicchio from the oven and add the Brussels sprouts to the pan. Return the pan to the oven and bake for 15 minutes, then flip the radicchio quarters so the other cut side is down and give the Brussels sprouts a good stir. Bake for another 15 minutes or until the Brussels sprouts start to crisp up.
- While the veggies are roasting, keep an eye on the lentils. When all the water is absorbed, turn off the stove and remove the pot from the heat. Uncover it and let it sit, stirring the lentils frequently to cool them a bit.
- After the lentils have cooled for about five minutes, drizzle in the dressing ingredients and stir until the lentils are well coated. Allow the mixture to sit while the veggies finish roasting.
- Once the Brussels sprouts are crispy and the radicchio has wilted and darkened, remove them from the oven. Toss the Brussels sprouts with the lentils, top with pine nuts, and serve immediately with the radicchio wedges on the side.
