Preparation
0/5 steps complete
Prepare the base: roasted sweet potato. Warm lentils until glossy and seasoned, then let them settle before packing.
Cook or prep glazed carrots separately so the side keeps its texture.
Spoon tamari onto lentils at the end, using just enough to season the main bite without soaking the grains or vegetables.
Let hot food cool for a few minutes, then arrange the main, the side, and the fresh or crunchy pieces in separate groups so every bite keeps its texture.
Set aside apple slices, sesame seeds before reheating. Warm only the cooked components, uncovered, for 45 to 75 seconds.
