Enjoy a nourishing bowl filled with tender lentils, hearty brown rice, and protein-packed chickpeas, all brought together with the aromatic freshness of cilantro, red onion, and garlic. This warm, comforting dish is lightly dressed with a hint of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper for balanced flavor and texture.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup Brown Rice, cooked
1.25 cups Lentils, cooked
1/2 cup Chickpeas, cooked
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Spinach, raw
1/4 medium Red Onion, chopped
1 clove Garlic, minced
1/4 cup Fresh Cilantro, chopped
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the brown rice and cook according to package instructions until tender.
In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and add lentils. Simmer until soft, about 20-25 minutes. Drain if necessary.
Heat a small pan over medium heat, add olive oil, and sauté the minced garlic and finely chopped red onion until fragrant and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Combine the cooked lentils, brown rice, and chickpeas in a serving bowl. Gently stir in the sautéed garlic and onion mixture.
Mix in the raw spinach so that it slightly wilts from the warmth of the other ingredients.
Top with fresh chopped cilantro and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve warm and enjoy your hearty, nutrient-packed meal.
