Puy lentil stew with baked cauliflower and steamed cavolo nero
This is another recipe that I cook on a Sunday evening, using up whatever’s in the fridge. Left over chicken from a Sunday roast would also work well in this. I make a large batch which I freeze and then reheat (thoroughly) throughout the week.

Place the quartered cauliflower in the hot roasting pan (you could also add some halved sweet potatoes and large chunks of squash, which are great throughout the week as a side to or as part of lunch time salads). Drizzle around 1 tbsp of the rapeseed oil over the cauliflower (use more oil if you’re adding sweet potato &/or squash). Bake for 1 to 1 ½ hours
