I like to open a jar of lentils cooked with vegetables every now and then, but until now I’d never tried making them myself. Thanks to this recipe, I no longer need to buy jars!
It’s super simple, tasty, and much cheaper than buying the same thing at the grocery store! Paired with a serving of brown rice, these lentils cooked with vegetables also make for an interesting alternative to animal protein.
As you’ll see in the recipe, I don’t add any fat—no oil or butter—to prepare these lentils. This makes it a very healthy vegan dish that’s suitable for all diets and dietary restrictions!
No need to soak the lentils overnight—everything is prepared fresh.
Plus, green lentils keep for a very long time in the pantry. So all you’ll need to do is buy (or pick!) a few fresh vegetables to make this dish.
Enjoy, and thank you in advance for your comments 🙏
This is a great recipe—I love it with a small piece of Vosges ham ❤️
Hi Catherine, thanks for the photo and the suggestion! I'm thrilled to see my lentils with vegetables on such a pretty, colorful plate, topped with a local product I hadn't heard of before and that looks really good… That ham looks like a lean, flavorful cut—and smoked, if I’m not mistaken! Yum, I’ll have to try it myself 😋
I'll give it a try, but I really like it
Thank you, Claudine, for your message. Yes, these lentils can be cooked any time of year! Let me know what you think…
Very good and easy to make.
Thanks, Jocelyne!
