Lentil Curry

I have been searching high and low for a couple of good lentil recipes. I checked out a couple of sites (including the Canadian Lentils website – what a great recipe collection they have and my other favourite site – the Gracious Pantry). With this knowledge in hand we made a curry (our family loves curry!) using the lentils I had just purchased. Here is what we did.

Ingredients:

– 2 cups of green lentils

– 7 cups of chicken broth

– 2 cups of sliced carrots

– 3 cups of fresh spinach

– 7 garlic cloves

– 1 zucchini grated

– 1 tbsp of curry powder

– 2 tsp cinnamon (this is where my hubby wished we had cinnamon sticks!)

– 1 tsp cumin

– 2 tsp onion powder

– 1/2 tsp ground ginger

Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients into one large pot. Bring to a boil and continue to boil on medium heat until the liquid has been absorbed (took roughly thirty minutes on our stove).

This prepared meals for four for dinner with lunch the next day as well as three freezer meals for during the work week.
