Chipotle Sweet Potatoes & Lentils

with Citrus-Pecan Salad

Beluga lentils, a type of small, black lentil with an earthy flavor, retain their firm texture once cooked. The pecans in this citrus salad accentuate the nutty flavor of the lentils. Roasted sweet potatoes offer a silky, starchy contrast to the refreshing Valencia orange in this high-protein dinner.
