Here is a couple of cool things about red (actually coral colored) lentils. They turn yellow when you cook them! They cook really quickly, in about fifteen minutes! So if you are hankering for a quick vegan meal, sauté some chopped onions, garlic and ginger, add the lentils and veg stock, and spice it up with turmeric, cumin, and cayenne. Then with 15 minutes of simmering, it’s ready! Add a little non-fat plain yogurt on top to make it look fancy. I had mine with brown rice but if you are short on time, pita will do.
