Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Lentils and Rice

In a pot, combine black lentils and red rice with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 25-30 minutes. Drain any excess water and set aside.

2

Cook Sweet Potatoes and Seasonal Vegetables

In a large pan, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add diced sweet potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes until they start to soften. Add the seasonal vegetables and continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes.

3

Sauté Aromatics

In the same pan, add minced garlic and shallots. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant and shallots are translucent.

4

Combine Ingredients

Add the cooked lentils, red rice, white beans, and sautéed greens to the pan. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 5 minutes until everything is heated through.

5

Add Dressing

Drizzle sherry vinaigrette over the mixture and toss to coat. Sprinkle nutritional yeast on top and mix well.

6

Serve

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve warm as a hearty vegan meal.
