Sweet Potato and Lentil Bake

I adapted this recipe from Vegetarian Times.  In the original recipe each serving is cooked in a separate foil packet, but I put it in a casserole dish instead. 

Ingredients
2 medium sweet potatoes
1 large red bell pepper, diced
1 cup green beans, chopped
1/4 cup raisins
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 cup vegetable broth
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon chili paste
1 1/2 cups cooked lentils

Preheat oven to 400 F.  Grease a casserole dish.  Combine sweet potato, bell pepper, green beans, and raisins in medium bowl.  Add oil, and toss to coat.  Season with salt and pepper, if desired.  Whisk together broth, ginger, garlic, curry powder, and chili paste in a small bowl.  Place sweet potato mixture in casserole dish, add sauce, and stir.  Bake 30 minutes or until sweet potatoes are soft.  Serve over rice or quinoa.
