Lentil Veggie Asparagus Frittata Recipe

Step 1

Soak the lentils in hot water for at least 20 minutes. Soak them before you get the ingredients together as the rest of the steps will take about that much time. Prepare your pan by lining with parchment or greasing well. Preheat the oven to 365 degrees F / 180ºc

Step 2

Chop up the veggies and keep aside. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions, garlic and cook until onions are translucent. 3-4 mins.

Step 3

Add the asparagus, cauliflower, carrots and other veggies if using and mix in. Cover and cook for 2 minutes. Add in the spices, greens and mix in. Cover and cook for 2 to 4 minutes or until the greens are wilted. Take off heat and Let it sit covered for another minute.

Step 4

Drain the lentils and blend with 1 cup water. Blend for atleast a minute. Add the almond flour and the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth. I blended 2 full 50 second cycles in the blendtec.

Step 5

Transfer the veggies to the parchment lined pan. Mix in vegan cheese shreds if using.

Step 6

Drizzle the lentil mixture on the veggies and spread with a spatula. Tap once or twice so the mixture settles on the veggies.

Step 7

Bake for 40 to 50 minutes until a tooth pick from the center comes out almost clean and not wet.

Step 8

Cool in the pan for 10 mintues, Then cool on the cooling rack for another 5-10 before slicing. Serve with avocado and sriracha or other sauce, chutney or dressing.
