Who doesn’t need to get their creative juices flowing right now? After 8 weeks at the beach, we returned home and we’re still getting organized. We got a few orders from Instacart, but the temptation pulling me in to Trader Joe’s after three months of not going was too strong. I haven’t been since Hayden…

Improved Lentil Shepherd’s Pie
I’ve made a lentil shepherd’s pie once before and when Josh named it as one of his top meals I’ve made I wanted to make it again last week. This time I wanted to make it even better than last time and I really think it was! The lentil mixture is so savory, believe me…
BBQ Lentil Balls
I made these BBQ Lentil Balls the other night and they were so tasty! They’re savory and hearty and I paired them with roasted potatoes and onions and garlic green beans. They’re protein and healthy carb packed and have minimal fat. I found the easiest way to make lentil based things is to buy lentils…
Creole Spiced Lentils with Roasted Potato Chips
Just when I thought I was so prepared for this week’s meals… I ran out of most of what I needed for the sloppy Joe’s I was going to make tonight. I was out of chili powder, down a can of diced tomatoes, and then I was missing the main ingredient, BROWN LENTILS! Uhhh I…
Oil Free Lentil Sloppy Joe’s
I’ve made lentil sloppy joe’s in the past several times, but this time I tried the Dr. McDougall recipe who is the founder of Starch Solution. His recipes are oil free, low fat, and are mostly starch based meals. This recipe used more whole food, as where the others had ketchup or BBQ sauce added….
Savory Lentils and Brown Rice
I know I’ve posted about this recipe before, but it’s soooo tasty and soooo easy! It takes about two minutes to prep, press the brown rice button on the rice cooker, and an hour later you have a savory, flavorful meal in one pot. We’ve been on a mushroom kick this week already, so I…
HCH Lentil Loaf and Baked Fries
Tonight I made High Carb Hannah’s lentil loaf instead of the lentil sloppy joe’s that I had planned, because I watched her video on how she made it yesterday and it looked so good I changed my mind! The good thing is, I already had all of the ingredients because they’re so similar. Instead of…
Lentil Shepherd’s Pie
If you’re a vegan who misses the flavor of beef, this could be the one for you. I used Vegetarian Better than Bouillon Beef flavor and vegetable broth to cook the lentils so they absorbed the flavor and kind of tastes like traditional ground meat shepherd’s pie with a different texture. I used the inside…
Lentil Sloppy Joes
These lentil sloppy joes are so flavorful and are done in 30 minutes, so we have them monthly. They pack a ton of protein and are a healthy way to feel full and satisfied. After the pasta last night and again for lunch today, I was carbed out. No bun for me! I decided to…
