New Year's 2012 Good Luck Dishes - Lucky Lentils

Yum
I think we can all use a little extra luck at the beginning of a New Year.  I will be doing a few days of "Good Luck Dishes" to eat on New Year's Eve/Day to help you start off your 2012 the right way.   It is said that lentils resemble coins so I thought making them look like gold coins (with the help from some lovely turmeric) would make them even more lucky.  Here are a list of 7 wonderful Lucky Lentil Dishes.  







Channa Dhal-Indian Style Lentils 

 

 

 

 



Basic Lentil Curry-Vegan Version

Spinach, Tomato and Lentil Curry

  5. Every single one of those dishes made my mouth water! I love lentils (especially the red variety). Turmeric is also a favorite spice, but you already knew that. Happy New Year, my friend!

  8. I was raised on lentils via daal, but I'm just now discovering all of the ways lentils can be used for main course meals too. I recently put them in a turkey chili instead of beans, and I love cooking them with sausage too.

  9. Those just look amazing--that color! Hoppin' john with black-eyed peas is the traditional good-luck dish in our household--hoping to make that this weekend.

  10. These all look so good Ramona! I am looking to make a lentil dish this weekend. I got some Vadouvan from William Sonoma for Christmas that I want to use in a lentil dish. What recipe do you think I should use? I knew you were the person to help me with this :) Happy New Year!!
