Lentil dal is an easy and inexpensive meat-free meal to make for dinner, even on a busy weeknight! Although it may require some cooking time, there is very little prep work involved. Lentils are high in folate, and anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer polyphenols. They also contain about 12 grams of protein per quarter cup (uncooked)! Serve dal with cooked white or brown rice and this Raw Cilantro-Lime Chutney for an easy, nourishing meal.
