Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Slice 2 plantains into 1/2-inch rounds and toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet with 2 cups cauliflower florets. Roast until plantains are caramelized and cauliflower is tender, about 15 minutes.
Step 2
While roasting, in a large bowl combine 1.5 cups cooked lentils, 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes, and 2 cups baby spinach. Toss with juice of 1 lemon, 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Step 3
Add the roasted plantains and cauliflower to the bowl, toss gently to combine. Serve warm, garnished with sesame seeds if desired.
