Description

Delicious, nutritious wraps made with protein-rich red lentils and fresh spinach, offering a vibrant taste and healthy meal option.


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup Red Lentils

2 cups Fresh Spinach

4 Whole Wheat Tortillas

1/2 cup Greek Yogurt

1/2 cup Feta Cheese

Juice of 1 Lemon

2 Garlic Cloves, minced

1 teaspoon Cumin

1 tablespoon Olive Oil

Salt and Pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Rinse the lentils under cold water in a fine-mesh strainer.
  2. In a medium saucepan, add rinsed lentils and 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil, reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Drain any leftover water.
  3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes.
  4. Add fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted, about 3 minutes.
  5. In a bowl, combine cooked lentils, sautéed spinach, garlic, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and cumin. Mix well.
  6. Assemble the wraps by placing lentil-spinach mixture in the center of tortillas, adding Greek yogurt and feta, then folding.
  7. Slice wraps in half and serve immediately with sides like salad or veggies.

Notes

You can customize the fillings with different herbs or replace Greek yogurt with hummus for a dairy-free option.
