Easy Cumin Lentil Spread
March 16, 2015

Mmm lentils. Tasty and good for you. Packed with 18 g of protein, 16 g of fibre, and only 1 g of fat per cup. This spread is simple to make and can be thrown together as a quick appetizer or snack. If your time is very limited, you can even use a can of lentils instead of dried. If you’d like it to have a stronger taste, just add more cumin!
