Here’s a round up of ten gluten-free and vegan red lentil recipes from fellow food bloggers. I just love the creaminess of these vegan red lentil recipes and I know so will you.
We’re switching things up a bit here. Instead of the usual Friday Foodie Faves where I share my 10 favorite recipe finds from fellow food bloggers, now I’m switched over to themed posts.
With the beginning of fall now is the time to get into fall themed recipes. The past couple weeks I shared 10 Gluten Free Pumpkin Desserts, 10 Fall Apple Desserts, 10 Fall Sweet Potato Recipes, 10 Cauliflower Recipes, and this week the theme is vegan red lentil recipes!
When D and I rented an apartment in Vancouver last week I bought a whole bag of red lentils to cook with and it has quickly reminded me how much I love this adorable little cooking ingredient.
I only recently, within the last few years, started cooking with lentils. Growing up my mom never cooked with lentils so it’s been a bit of a learning process. For one, I’ve realized I’m not a huge fan of brown lentils. I mean they’re ok, but nothing special to me.
Red lentils on the other hand are something else. First of all the cook quickly and I mean within 10 minutes. Now that is always a plus. And they’re just so soft and creamy, I just love ’em.
And I have no doubt you will too, so with red lentil recipes on my mind, here’s a round up of ten gluten-free and vegan red lentil recipes from fellow food bloggers.
Feel free to share in the comments if you have any Vegan Red Lentil Recipes in mind.
