Hello Steem Fam!
It has come around to that time of year when if you are not in the sun then you feel chilly in the shade. For this reason I found myself cooking up some spicy lentils and wholewheat bread. There is nothing nicer than bread, still warm from the oven with butter just slightly melting on it.
My lentil dish is flavored with diced onion, garlic, carrot and celery, fresh roasted and ground cumin , tomatoes and lots of bay laurel with just a splash of organic cider vinegar. Topped with fresh picked parsley!
It’s as good as it looks believe me!
Lentils are not only delicious but they are exceptional natural medicine. They are an impressive source of nutrition and have numerous health benefits.. When you eat less, yet feel more satisfied by it you know you are eating highly nutritious food.
Lentils boost energy, support weight loss, regulate blood sugar levels, lower cholesterol levels, decrease the risk of heart disease, maintain blood tonicity, promote intestinal regularity and prevent cancer.
Lentils have massive amounts of minerals, vitamins fiber and protein. They contain folate, copper, phosphorus, potassium , vitamin B6, manganese, iron and small amounts of selenium.
They support healthy pregnancy too as they are high in folic acid which ensures good brain development, guards against birth defects, Spina bifida and premature delivery.
There are various different types and ways to enjoy lentils ..... how do you serve yours?
