Ingredients
- 2 cups red lentil pasta or any other pasta variety of choice, dry
- 18 oz cauliflower florets
- 2 tsp cumin
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 7 oz tempeh crumbled
- 2 tbsp tamari
- 2 tsp paprika
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 medium green bell pepper chopped
- 2 cups spinach

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees C/ 392 F. Cook pasta according to instructions on packaging.
