I love this recipe so much because it’s easy (~10 mins to prep), healthy (complete proteins & green stuff!), and has lots of different layers of flavor (literally). It’s great to make ahead for a tasty weekday office lunch - just leave off the sauces & mint until right before you eat it. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 head of broccoli, chopped
1 serving prepared rice, quinoa, or mixed grains
1/4 package Trader Joe’s cooked lentils
2 Tbsp avocado oil
1 Tsbp olive oil
Splash lemon juice
Sprinkling of garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper & smoked paprika
2 Tbsp Trader Joe’s zhoug sauce
2 Tbsp hummus (preferably roasted garlic)
Approximately 12 mint leaves, thinly sliced
Directions:
1. Heat cast iron pan on high heat. Add avocado oil when hot.
2. Add broccoli and cover, allowing to cook on high for several minutes. Sprinkle with lemon juice and spices. Continue cooking for several minutes until broccoli is tender and charred, stirring occasionally. Add olive oil at the end of cooking and set broccoli aside.
3. Heat lentils in the pan, adding a bit of olive oil if necessary.
4. Layer the cooked grains and lentils into a bowl. Cover with broccoli. Add a layer of hummus and zhoug. Sprinkle with mint.
5. Enjoy! 😋
