• Whisk parsley, 1/2 cup olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, 1 tablespoon honey, vinegar, Dijon mustard, and soy sauce in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

• In a skillet on medium-high heat, saute the bacon for 5 minutes, stirring often, until brown and crispy. Drain the bacon on paper towel and set aside.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER SALAD WITH HALLOUMI AND LEMON

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees and set a large rimmed baking sheet on the middle rack.
• In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower with 3 tablespoons olive oil, the Aleppo, coriander, turmeric, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Transfer to the hot baking sheet, spread in an even layer and roast until browned in spots and crisp-tender, tossing once halfway through, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, stir together the shallot, raisins, preserved lemon, vinegar and honey with 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Set aside.
• Prepare the halloumi: Cut the halloumi into 3/4-inch cubes and pat dry using a kitchen towel or paper towels. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high. Add the halloumi cubes and cook, stirring frequently, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. (You'll want to be fairly attentive, flipping frequently, as you want to make sure the cubes toast without burning or melting.) Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and season with pepper.
• Toss the arugula with half the vinaigrette until lightly coated and divide among plates or shallow bowls. Top with the cauliflower, halloumi and avocado. Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette, sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

WARM LENTIL-AND-CAULIFLOWER SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475°F, with a rimmed baking sheet on center rack and another rack in top position. Toss together tomatoes, garlic, capers, and 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Brush cauliflower evenly with 3 tablespoons oil, season, and arrange on sheet. Roast until undersides are golden, 12 to 13 minutes. Flip and push to one side; add tomatoes to other and roast 12 minutes more.
• Stir lentils into tomatoes. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil; season. Sprinkle everything with cheese. Switch oven to broil, and broil on top rack until cheese has melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Toss arugula with remaining 1 tablespoon oil and vinegar; season. Serve cauliflower and lentils with arugula salad, sprinkled with almonds.
