Notes

For a quicker prep, roast the pumpkin and cook the lentils simultaneously. You can use pre-cooked lentils from a can if you’re short on time. Adjust seasoning gradually; you can always add more salt or spices later. Fresh herbs like parsley or thyme make a lovely garnish for added color and freshness. This dish stores beautifully in the fridge for up to 4 days, or can be frozen for up to 3 months. When reheating, ensure it’s warmed through without exceeding 2 hours at room temperature to prevent spoilage.
