Step 1

Preheat oven to 400˚F. Remove the ends from the delicata squash, cut in half down the length and remove the seeds. Cut the delicata squash into ¼” slices. Toss with diced scallions, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Roast until tender and scallions are browning, 25 minutes.

Step 2

In a small pot, combine lentils with 2/3 cup water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and let cook until tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Check at the 20 minute mark and add more water as needed. Drain any excess water

Step 3

Combine dressing ingredients in a small container with a lid. Shake until well combined. Pour half over the kale and allow to sit while the squash and lentils are cooking.

Step 4

Add the cooked squash and lentils to the kale along with the remaining half of the dressing. Toss until everything is combined.
