Servings 1 serving

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

Instructions
 

  • Cook lentils according to the package instructions, set aside. This can be done the day before.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients, set aside.
  • 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.
  • To save on dishes use the same pan to cook the eggs. Add a little more olive oil, fry the egg to your preference.
  • 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.
