- 2. Meanwhile, cook lentils and bay leaves in sufficient boiling salted water to cover in a large saucepan over medium heat for 20 min, or possibly till tender; add in red onion for the last 2 min of cooking. Drain in a colander. Throw away bay leaves.
- 3. While squash and lentils are cooking, thoroughly wash the spinach and spin dry. Whisk together apricots, chicken broth, parsley, vinegar, canola oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add in lentils and squash and stir to combine well. Serve hot over spinach; garnish with almonds.
