Comfort in a bowl, and one of the most requested recipes from our Plant-Forward program. It freezes beautifully for future you.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1.5 cups red lentils, rinsed
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • Fresh cilantro to finish

Method

  1. Warm the oil and soften the onion and carrots for 6 minutes.
  2. Stir in garlic, cumin, and turmeric until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  3. Add lentils, broth, and tomatoes. Simmer 20 to 25 minutes until lentils break down.
  4. Finish with lemon juice and cilantro. Blend partially for a creamier texture if you like.
Coach's tip. A spoonful of plain yogurt on top adds a lovely tang and a little extra protein.
