01 Mar Lentil Rice
A great way to boost the nutrition to regular rice is to add some lentils to it! I like making a large pot of lentil rice – its great to have with curries or on its own topped with some plain Greek yogurt for an extra protein punch! All you need to do is soak 1/4 cup of split mung lentils for a few hours and add that to 1 cup of rice when it’s cooking! Easy peasy!
