Ingredients:

-1 package Lentils (see in Trader Joe’s finds HERE )

(1/2 c = 120 calories, 0 grams Fat, 20 grams carbs, 8 grams fiber, 9 grams protein )

-3-4 cloves garlic, minced
-1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
-1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
-1/2 yellow bell pepper, chopped
-1/2 orange bell pepper, chopped
-1/4 cup green onions, diced
-1/4 cup white onions, chopped
-15 red & yellow cherry tomatoes, halved
-pepper (sea salt optional) to taste

Directions:

Simply place all ingredients in a large bowl, mix well with a spoon and allow to chill for a few hours before serving. Can be served right away but if you allow it to sit, the flavors come alive that much more.

Serve and enjoy! (For extra volume, add them to lettuce cups.)

 

In all of my PLANS

*1 Cup = 2 Carbohydrate swaps + protein —> Complete meal of 30 grams of carbs and 1 serving protein

*1/2 cup = 1 Carbohydrate swap + 2 grams of protein (add another 2 oz to make this a complete meal)

Makes great lettuce wraps too 🙂
