INGREDIENTS
0.5 cup dry Red Lentils (~100g)
2/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (~150g)
0.5 cup Diced Tomatoes (~120g)
0.25 cup Diced Onion (~40g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (~5g)
1 teaspoon mixed Spices (Cumin, Turmeric, Chili Powder, Garlic Powder, Salt, Pepper)
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly under cool water and drain.
In a small pot, add the red lentils with 1.5 cups of water. Bring to a simmer and cook over medium heat for about 15-20 minutes until the lentils are soft and beginning to break apart.
While the lentils are cooking, heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion for 2-3 minutes until softened, then add the diced tomatoes. Stir in the mixed spices and let them cook together for another minute to release their aromas.
Combine the sautéed onion and tomato mixture with the cooked lentils. Simmer together for an additional 3-5 minutes so that the flavors meld.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt until fully incorporated, creating a creamy texture.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed, then serve warm. Enjoy this comforting dish as a fulfilling meal at breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
