This recipe combines lentils and cauliflower to produce a warming curry that the family will love.
Lentils are not only cheap to buy; they are filling, low in fat, high in protein, easy to store and simple to cook.
As for cauliflower, it is one white food you can feel great about eating – one cup of cooked cauliflower contains just 30 calories.
This crunchy vegetable is packed with potassium and, interestingly, Vitamin C. You might think of citrus fruit when you think of Vitamin C, but cauliflower has only slightly less potassium than an orange.
