This Creamy Red Lentils Curry is one of my favorite dishes because it's super flavorful, nutritious, protein-packed, and you can make it in a blink of an eye.

Creamy Red Lentil Curry

Organic Red Lentils

Coconut milk

spring onions

red bell pepper

yellow bell pepper

Coconut oil

Yellow Vegan Thai Curry Paste

Turmeric

1-inch Ground Fresh Ginger (or 1 tbsp ground ginger powder)

Black Pepper

Sea Salt

tsp Coriander Seeds

Cilantro Leaves

Basmati Rice

If having rice with your lentils, put it to boil with three cups of water and 1 tsp of salt. It will take 10-15 minutes and be ready when your lentils are.

Chop your spring onions and bell peppers in massive cuts. Remember that reducing your vegetables' surface exposure to the heat keeps more of their nutrients. Feel free to add any other leftover veggies you have, such as broccoli or cauliflower stems.

In a pan, stir fry your veggies with the coconut oil for 3 minutes and add the yellow curry paste.

Add the coconut milk and all the spices. Let the mixture simmer for another 2 minutes.

Add the lentils along with 4 cups of water, stir twice during the 10 minutes it will take to be ready.

Mexican Roasted Broccoli

Lemon Quinoa with fresh herbs is a healthy gluten free side that is taken up a notch by a mix of sauteed shallots, bright lemon, parsley, thyme and spinach. If you like, this is an excellent quinoa salad.

Herbed Lemon Quinoa with Spinach

quinoa

chicken low-sodium broth

salt and black pepper (to taste)

olive oil

shallots

lemon

Italian parsley

baby spinach sliced

thyme (fresh)

red pepper

In a fine sieve rinse quinoa in cold water.

Bring 2 3/4 cups chicken broth to a boil in a 2-qt. saucepan. Stir in quinoa, salt, and pepper; reduce heat to low. Cook, covered, until liquid is absorbed, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat; let sit 5 minutes; uncover and fluff with fork; keep warm.

Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat; add shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, about 10 minutes. Stir in zest and juice and simmer for 1 minute; remove from heat. Add the quinoa, baby spinach, thyme, parsley and stir until thoroughly combined. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Really enjoyed this recipe "as is".  The lemon rind/juice was a nice addition.  Always love anything with spinach and fresh herbs.  I will definitely be making this again....at least 1-2x/month on our NON-MEAT meals....which we try to incorporate 3-4 days per week.  My husband thought it was very tasty as well - he added some of the crumbled feta on his!!!!  Thank you for this wonderful "full of protein" recipe...

DELICIOUS!   Healthy, fresh and easy!  Great side and leftover for lunch.  Thanks, for another delicious recipe.

Hi Marisa!
I always smile when I read the comments that you leave on my posts, especially your most recent one. I hope that your family enjoys the Triple Coconut Pie as much as my husband and friends do :0)
Ok, so I don't prepare quinoa very often. I love couscous, and prepare it the same way that you prepare your quinoa side dishes. 
This recipe sounds so yummy though  . . . and I know that the health benefits are great. 
I think I might need to pick up a bag from TJ's tomorrow, and give this recipe a try. 
I've been loving asparagus lately, so I think I might need to add a little of that too :0)
Thanks so much for sharing your recipes!
I hope you're having a great week,
Suzanne
