I just had a beautiful baby boy & my dear friend, Laura Hall, brought over this delicious & nutritious lentil dish. I had it first with quinoa then the following day with the corn chips… So good!!!

Ingredients:

1/2 cup green lentils
1.5 cups water
1 carrot, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
½ cup chopped onion
¼ cup raisins
1 teaspoon unsalted butter (okay, sometimes I use 2)
1 tsp. Himalayan rock salt
1 teaspoon curry powder
Fresh ground pepper, to taste

Directions:

Rinse the lentils thoroughly.
Combine lentils and ½ cup of water in a large saucepan, bring to a boil and simmer for about 5 minutes.
Stir in the carrots and another ½ cup of water and simmer on high for another 5 minutes.
Stir in the rest of the ingredients and ½ a cup of water, cover, cook 5 more minutes and test the carrots for tenderness, add a splash of water and cook longer if need be. Adjust seasoning and serve alone, with brown rice or grains, or chill and pair with corn tortillas chips as a yummy dip.
