This week we've chosen to highlight the hearty, humble lentil, which can be transformed into a legume bowl, a salad topper, or protein packed side dish. Happy cooking!
These lentils get additional flavor from curry powder, garlic and shallots. It's topped off with a bit of greens, a creamy poached egg and a bit of spicy chili oil for some kick! Make sure to batch cook your lentils so you can add them to meals throughout the week.
Bright and vibrant are the words that come to mind when we think of this grain salad! This is a great fridge clean out salad, so feel free to use whatever veg you have that you need to get rid of. This recipe calls for cooked farro, but to keep things gluten free, we suggest using cooked quinoa instead.
Put those batch lentils to good use with this filling summer meal! Grilled salmon pairs perfectly with the earthy lentils and creamy avocado. This is the meal that just keeps on giving!
A base of creamy ricotta lightens up the last of your lentils! Top it off with sweet roasted beets and whatever veg you have in your fridge for an easy dinner.
This dish brings summer bounty to the forefront with zucchini spirals, fresh tomatoes and bright pesto. And added bonus, you never have to turn on your range or oven! That's news we love to hear during this heat.
We love a good spin on a classic pizza! This one takes the pepperoni and cheese and adds it to the inside of a juicy chicken breast. Top it with a bit of pizza sauce, bake it in the oven and Friday's dinner is on the table.
