Hi my dears,

… and just like that, winter is still in Germany. Due to these cold temperatures that seem to make everyone freezing, I thought it might be good idea to share a recipe of this delicious vegan yellow lentil dal which definitely warm you up.
I mean what is even better than enjoying a warming meal while wearing cozy clothes and fleecy socks cuddled up under a blanket on the sofa?! I think there is nothing better than that!

This yellow lentil dal is, of course, quick and easy to make. It doesn’t require a lot of ingredients and can be ready to eat in under 30 minutes.
Moreover, you can also store it in the fridge and take it to work or university with you on the next day or you can easily freeze it, so you have always a delicious soup in stock to defrost when you feel cold.

I love lentils because they’re very rich in micro nutrients like magnesium and iron as well as in macro nutrients like carbohydrates and protein, so they nourish your body perfectly.

Also now let’s start with the recipe of this healthy, delicious and nourishing yellow lentil dahl!
