58 Months A Vegan. Red Lentil Dal. #foodismedicine #eattolose #WFPBNO


We're expecting our 1st snow of the season tonight. As good as that sounds, homemade hot soup makes it that much better! I NEVER MADE THIS BEFORE BUT I'M GOING TO MAKE IT AGAIN!!! Whole Foods Plant Based No Oil.

RED LENTIL DAL
2 cups red lentils
4 cups water
1 tsp Sabji masala
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Set your pressure cooker for 25 minutes then let it cook until it completely vents. Stir to make it the texture of pea soup.
While that's cooking chop a medium onion, 2 carrots and 2 stalks of celery. Put all the veggies in a saucepan with 1 cup of water, 1 TBS of Tamara, 1/2 tsp of herbes de provence sea salt, 1/4 tsp smoked paprika and 1/4 tsp ground turmeric.
Bring it to a boil then turn the heat down and let it simmer for 40 minutes covered or until the carrots are fully cooked and soft.
Mix the cooked veggies including the liquid and lentils together. Stir over low heat until it looks right, adding a little water as needed then serve hot.
I like to let it sit in the fridge overnight to get really thick. Then I put it in a pot, add water to thin it a little, stir over medium heat until it starts to simmer and then serve hot.  Enjoy!!

  1. Thanks Alan....definitely going to try this. I love making soups where the batch is big enough to freeze some container for later.
