I’ve been obsessed with Granny Smith apples and peanut butter, lately. Thomas says that is, coincidentally, his very favorite food. All foods are his very favorite.

Masoor Dal with Veggies
1 cup masoor dal
1/2 tbls olive oil
1 large onion diced or 1 bunch scallions, sliced
4 large cloves garlic, minced
1 small piece ginger, peeled and minced
2 large carrots, sliced thick
4-5 ribs celery, sliced thick
5 roma tomatoes, diced (seeds and all)
1 bunch cilantro, washed and chopped, with stems
juice of 1 lime
2 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp cayenne
6 cups water
Plus:
1/2 tbls olive oil
1 tbls black mustard seeds
1 tbls cumin seeds
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
Set Instant Pot to sautee. Cook onion, garlic, ginger, and turmeric in olive oil until onion starts to soften. Add the rest of the ingredients and set Instant Pot to manual for 20 minutes. When done cooking, quick release.
Stir in chopped spinach.
In a frying pan on stove, heat 1/2 tbls oil on medium-high, then add black mustard seeds and cumin seeds and cook until mustard seeds start popping. Add seeds to dal and stir in.

Pardina Lentils
These have become my favorite lentils.
I cooked them in the Instant Pot, then made veggie patties after mixing with rice, thinly sliced green onion and celery, grated carrot, garlic, and an egg. You could easily make it vegan by using flax “eggs” instead of chicken eggs. And you can use whatever veggies you like. That’s just what I had on hand.
They were super tasty!

Hummus
I don’t think there’s a better way to test a new blender than to make hummus. It’s no Vitamix, but it’ll do!

Popcorn
I may or may not have lost my mind. I was out of popcorn (the horror!), so I ordered some from Amazon. SIX POUNDS of popcorn.
