Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Slice off the top of the garlic head and wrap it in aluminum foil. Bake until soft, about 30 minutes. Squeeze out garlic and put aside.
- For the lentils:.
- Cook the lentils in about 2 cups salted boiling water with the bacon, onion, carrot, and celery. Reduce the heat and let simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes or until the lentils are tender. Drain the lentils; discard the vegetables and bacon and keep the lentils aside.
- For the wine sauce:.
- Meanwhile, in another pot, bring the red wine, veal stock, and brown sugar to a boil. Reduce the heat and let simmer for 30 minutes, until reduced by half and thick, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and keep aside.
- For the crostini:.
- Meanwhile, in a hot pan, add 1/4 cup olive oil and grill the bread in in the hot oil on both sides for about 30 seconds. Finish in the oven for 5 minutes to crisp them. Put aside.
- For the poached tomatoes:.
- Pour about 1 cup olive oil in a small stockpot. Heat the oil on medium and when hot, toss in the tomatoes. Remove when the tomato skin begins to crack, about 3 minutes. Remove the tomatoes, keeping the oil for another use.
- For the pancetta:.
- Place the slices on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Cover with another piece of parchment paper and cover with another baking sheet to ensure they stay flat. Cook the pancetta in the oven for 15 minutes, or until crispy.
- For the Swiss chard:.
- Add the butter to a hot pan. Add the Swiss chard and saute to heat through. Add the cooked lentils and heat gently on medium-low heat to warm through, then season with salt and pepper.
- To assemble:.
- Spread the roasted garlic and a generous dollop of goat cheese on each slice of bread and then place in the oven for a few minutes so that the cheese melts just slightly and the bread is warm.
- To prevent the bread from sliding, place a touch of goat cheese in the center of each plate. Place the warm bread on top, then top the bread with a couple of slices pancetta. Next, top with the Swiss chard-lentil mixture and a spoon of the red wine sauce. Add a drizzle of Vincotto and the poached tomatoes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Arrange the baguette slices on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake until slightly dried out, about 6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix together the chevre, chives, parsley, lemon zest, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a bowl until well combined. Stir in the lemon juice to loosen the mixture so it will be easier to pipe. Transfer the mixture to a resealable plastic bag and cut off the tip of one corner with scissors.
- Pipe the goat cheese mixture onto the crostini. Return the crostini to the oven and bake until warm, about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together the honey and balsamic in a small bowl.
- Place 2 raspberries on top of each crostini and transfer to a serving platter. Spoon a little of the balsamic mixture on each crostini and serve immediately.

BAKED LENTILS WITH GOAT CHEESE
The French green Le Puy lentils are smaller and firmer than brown lentils, but have the same type of earthy flavor. They lend themselves to dishes where you want the lentils to stay intact like salads and sides. "Beluga lentils" will also work for this salad.

Steps:
- Place the lentils in a large saucepan or soup pot with the halved onion, the garlic cloves, and the bay leaf. Add enough water to cover by 1 1/2 inches. Bring to a simmer, add 1 teaspoon salt, cover and simmer 30 minutes, or until the lentils are tender all the way through but intact. Set a strainer over a bowl and drain the lentils. Remove the onion halves, bay leaf, and garlic and discard. Return the liquid to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to 1/2 cup.
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Whisk together the vinegar, garlic, Dijon mustard, olive oil, and cooking liquid from the lentils. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss with the lentils. Stir in the parsley (or parsley and chives), place in a baking dish and top with the rounds of goat cheese. Heat through for 15 minutes, until the goat cheese has softened, and serve.
