While going through my Facebook newsfeed in January, I stopped scrolling at this post. I clicked it and did not read carefully and thought “Dang! I missed it this year” and left a comment that I will be there next year. The #CanadianLentils answered back, “you are still in! The entries are open till February end. Check the rules and regulations.” I blinked! Not many “known” Facebook entities entertain you with a personal reply.

I thought “Lentils”. Hmmm!!! Easy peasy!! I am a vegetarian and Indian vegetarian diet is filled with Lentil preps. But then I slapped the back of my head and told myself, ” You can’t take just anything to the contest. It has to be created. Something fusion. Something that can be conveyed better to the western masses. Something that is charming and totally healthy.

Lentils have lately earned a lot of fame in Health Foods. They are not only rich in protein and fiber but they are known to be heart healthy, being rich in folate and magnesium. These are excellent source of energy. Stabilize the blood sugar. Their regular intake reduces the risk of high cholesterol and stroke. A great produce to include in your weight loss program.

Do include different kinda of lentils like red, black, beluga lentils, green French lentils in your diet, few times a week for better health and better you!

I visited their Pinterest Board for some motivation. To be honest, I got scared with the kind of entries there. Absolutely fantastic work.

Having said that, I unfold the truth that I am on Pinterest too ❤️! Please show me some pinterest love on my profile. Also, like and pin my post on the Canadian Lentils Recipe Revelation Challenge Board. It adds to my chances of winning! The more love shown, the better are the chances. Do I sound needy? Then I am ☺️. Thank you so much!😘

The recipe that I have developed is very easy to execute, versatile for flavors, packed with nutrition, can be easily used for any meal and made with readily available ingredients.

Taking it to the Fiesta Friday 55, co-hosted by two of my most favorite ladies Suzanne and Sue.

  6. I know I stopped by but it was in the wee hours of the a.m. PST and just to comment on my initial reaction to the camera obscura background! One of the reasons I really like this recipe is because I like things that are dense and not airy and falling apart or not held together . . . if that make sense. Such as quinoa and even rice, plain. It just seems like air to me . . . but if you scrunch it into a ball with some cheese or some spices and cooked onions and an egg or something, and make a fritter, or make vegan “sausages” that’s so much better to me. I think of lentils as being sort of dainty in that they’re little and you kind of have to chase after them on the plate. Great job here and by the way, the blog link that is linked to your avatar is broken/old. Have a great weekend!!!!!

    1. I agree with you, I am more of a dense texture person too as per food! Biteful is always happier for me than the scurried one that goes all over the place when I try to bite.
      Thanks so much for liking it Sue.
      I will check the link again. These people have still not add my post. That makes me wonder, what’s going on???
