Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Servings: 1 serving
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 c cooked lentils prepared according to the package instructions (I like to cook a large batch and use it throughout the week)
  • Large handful of spinach
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 egg
For the Dressing
  • Juice of 1/2 a lime
  • 1-2 Tbs olive oil
  • Pinch of salt and pepper
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes
Garnishes
  • Avocado
  • Cilantro
  • Feta or queso fresco
  • Salt and pepper

Method
 

  1. Cook lentils according to the package instructions, set aside. This can be done the day before.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients, set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tsp olive oil over medium in a large pan. Saute the spinach until almost wilted. Add the garlic and cook for one more minute, or until the spinach is fully wilted.
  4. To save on dishes use the same pan to cook the eggs. Add a little more olive oil, fry the egg to your preference.
  5. Assemble your lentil bowl. Top lentils with fried egg, spinach and garlic, avocado, cilantro, feta or queso fresco, dressing, and add salt and pepper if needed.
