Ingredients
Scale
- 2 bunches broccolini

- Olive oil cooking spray
- 1 can brown lentils
- 2 handfuls baby spinach leaves
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries

Hot honey tahini Dressing:

Instructions
- Rinse the broccolini, then pat dry with paper towel. Trim the ends.
- Toss the broccolini stalks with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Add the broccolini to an air fryer basket lined with baking paper. Air fry at 180°C/350°F for 8-10 minutes, checking, shaking the basket every 3 – 4 minutes – this is necessary so they cook evenly.

Notes
- Storage: Transfer leftovers to airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days. I reccomend adding dressing just before eating.
