Hearty and delicious way to serve green lentils - onions make it sweet, almonds are for texture. YUMMY! Soaking the lentils the night before may help with the gas but not necessary. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups green lentils |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
2 onions, diced |
1 pound mushrooms, diced |
3 stalks celery, diced |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1/4 cup soy sauce |
2 tablespoons honey |
1 tablespoon lemon juice, or to taste |
2 cloves garlic, crushed |
1 cup chopped almonds |
Directions:
1. Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add lentils. Reduce heat and simmer until lentils are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onions until slightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Add mushrooms and celery; cook until mushrooms have softened, about 7 minutes.
3. Whisk 1/4 cup olive oil, soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, and garlic together in a bowl.
4. Stir almonds into onion mixture; mix well. Carefully fold in lentils and dressing; stir to coat. Serve warm or cold.
