1 large onion

2 cloves garlic

400g tin lentils

½ fresh Chilli (optional)

1 teaspoon of mixed herbs

2 cans diced tomatoes

1 cup Mushrooms (diced)

Pinch of raw sugar (optional)

Brown or white spaghetti

Fresh Basil or Parsley to garnish

You can use this Lentil mixture on top of baked potatoes, corn chips, rice or wraps. Be a little creative.

 

Using the same tomato base and adding kidney beans instead of lentils I made my favourite meal,

Nachos

 

 

 

Chopped raw broccoli, red capsicum, pumpkin seeds and cucumber.

 

Mushrooms, corn, parsley and freshly grated cheese 

Healthy Tip:

I love my chips but I do make sure I only have plain chips as they have less ingredients. Try reading ingredients and making a simple change to plain rather than flavours.  A simple rule: If you don’t know what the numbers or ingredients mean on the back of the packet then you don’t really know what you are putting into your body.

 

Here is a quick example. In this packet of flavoured chips there are 16 different ingredients.

 

 

 

In this plain packet of chips there are only 3 ingredients which are easy to recognise.

 

Enjoy :)
