some texture to it. (just the same consistency as pesto). Set aside for later.
✅ 👉 ADJUST THE GARLIC, VINEGAR AND MAPLE SYRUP TO YOUR TASTE.
To assemble the pasta salad: To a large bowl add the cooked pasta, cooked chickpeas, salad dressing, chopped celery, red onion, green onion and mix well until each pasta is nicely coated with the dressing. Serve the pasta salad with your favourite side. This pasta salad is really good for meal/ prep because it stores well in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days in an air tight container.
▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:
👉 After draining the liquid from the cooked chickpeas. ALLOW IT SIT IN THE STRAINER UNTIL ALL THE EXCESS WATER IS DRAINED
👉 After draining the cooked pasta, rinse it with cold water. THEN ALLOW THE COOKED PASTA TO SIT IN THE STRAINER UNTIL ALL THE EXCESS WATER IS DRAINED, otherwise the dressing will not stick to it

QUINOA And LENTILS Recipe | HIGH PROTEIN Vegetarian And Vegan Meal Ideas
QUINOA And LENTILS Recipe | HIGH PROTEIN Vegetarian And Vegan Meal Ideas
???? Quinoa and Lentils Recipe | High Protein Vegetarian and Vegan Meal Ideas
???? Let me know if you enjoyed my vegan quinoa and lentil recipe
▶️ RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (3 to 4 servings)
???? To cook the green lentils:
1/2 Cup / 100g GREEN Lentils (Washed/Soaked for 8 to 10 hours or overnight)
1 Teaspoon Salt (I have added pink Himalayan salt)
2 Cups / 475ml Water
???? To Marinate the cooked green lentils:
1+1/2 Tablespoon Lemon juice OR TO TASTE
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil (I have added organic cold pressed olive oil)
???? To cook Quinoa:
1 Cup / 190g Quinoa (Washed/Soaked for 30 minutes)
2 to 3 Tablespoon Olive Oil
1 Cup / 135g Onion
1+1/2 Cup / 200g Carrots (2 medium size carrots)
1 Tablespoon Garlic – finely chopped
3 Tablespoon Tomato paste OR TO TASTE
1+1/2 Teaspoon Paprika (NOT SMOKED)
1+1/2 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper (optional)
Salt to taste (I added total 1+1/4 Teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt)
1+1/2 Cup / 350ml Vegetable Broth (LOW SODIUM)
???? To Garnish:
1/2 Cup / 65g Red Onion – chopped
1/2 Cup / 25g Parsley – chopped
1/4 Cup / 5g Mint OR TO TASTE – chopped
1/2 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper or to taste
▶️ METHOD:
Wash & soak 1/2 cup of green lentils for 8 to 10 hours or overnight. Once the lentils are soaked, drain the water and rinse it. Transfer the lentils to a pot. Add salt and water. Cook over medium-high heat and bring to a vigorous boil. Once it starts to boil, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for about 4 minutes or until lentils are cooked but still holds its shape. WE DO NOT WANT MUSHY LENTILS. Right away strain the cooked lentils. Let it sit in the strainer to get rid of any excess water and allow it to cool down. Once lentils have cooled, add lemon juice, olive oil and mix well. Allow the lentils to marinate while we continue with the rest of the cooking.
✅ ????Cooking time of the lentils depends on it’s quality. One batch of lentils maybe drier than the others and may require longer cooking time. SO ADJUST THE COOKING TIME ACCORDINGLY.
Thoroughly wash 1 cup of quinoa until the water runs clear and then soak in water for 30 minutes. ✅ ????After 30 minutes drain the water from quinoa and let it sit in the strainer to get rid of any excess water.
To a heated WIDE PAN, add olive oil, chopped onion, carrots, 1/4 tsp salt and fry on medium to medium-high heat until it’s slightly browned (about 5 to 6 minutes). ADDING SALT TO ONION/CARROTS RELEASES IT’S MOISTURE AND HELPS IT COOK FASTER, SO PLEASE DON’T SKIP IT. Add the garlic and fry on medium heat for 30 seconds or until fragrant.
✅ ????REDUCE THE HEAT TO LOW BEFORE ADDING THE SPICES AND TOMATO PASTE TO PREVENT IT FROM BURNING.
Add the tomato paste, paprika, ground cumin, cayenne pepper and fry on low heat for only 1 to 2 minutes (no longer than that), just to cook out the raw flavour of the tomato paste. Add the quinoa, salt, vegetable broth. Turn up the heat and bring to a VIGOROUS BOIL. Then reduce the heat to low and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes or until quinoa is cooked.
✅ ????DO NOT LET THE QUINOA GET MUSHY. ADJUST THE COOKING TIME OF QUINOA ACCORDING TO THE HEAT OF YOUR STOVE. DO CHECK IN 15 MINUTES, if still not cooked then cook for longer. It took me 20 minutes on my stove.
Once the quinoa is cooked, uncover the lid and turn off stove. Add the cooked lentils, ground black pepper, red onions, parsley, mint & mix well. Cover the lid and allow it to rest for 3 to 4 minutes for the flavours to blend.
Serve hot with a side of green salad. Perfect for meal prep / meal planning as it stores well in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days
▶️ IMPORTANT NOTES:
???? Thoroughly wash the quinoa a few times until the water runs clear, this will get rid of any impurities/gunk/bitterness and will give quinoa a clean taste
???? Every stove is different SO ADJUST THE HEAT AND COOKING TIME AS REQUIRED
???? Cooking time of lentils depends on it’s quality. One batch of lentils maybe drier than the other and may require longer cooking time, SO ADJUST ACCORDINGLY
???? DON’T LET THE QUINOA GET MUSHY. ADJUST THE COOKING TIME ACCORDING TO THE HEAT OF YOUR STOVE. CHECK IN 15 MINUTES, if its still not cooked, then cook for longer

▶️ CHICKPEA PATTIES RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (12 to 13 patties)
2 Cups / 1 Can (540ml Can) COOKED Chickpeas
400g / 2+1/4 cups approx. FINELY GRATED Sweet Potato (1 large sweet potato 445g with the skin)
160g / 2 cup Green Onions – finely chopped and firmly packed
3/4 to 1 cup / 40 to 60g Cilantro or parsley – finely chopped
15 to 17g / 1 tablespoon grated Garlic OR TO TASTE
7g / 1/2 tablespoon grated Ginger OR TO TASTE
2 to 2+1/2 tablespoon Lemon Juice (✅ ???? some lemons are more sour than the others so adjust the quantity of lemon juice to your liking)
2 Teaspoon Paprika (NOT SMOKED)
1 Teaspoon Ground Coriander
1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
1/2 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
1/4 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper or to taste (OPTIONAL)
100g / 3/4 Cup Chickpea Flour or Besan
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 Tablespoon Olive Oil
Salt to taste
???? Good Quality Olive Oil to Brush the patties (I used organic cold pressed extra virgin olive oil)
???? Sriracha Mayo Dipping sauce/spread:
Mayonnaise (vegan)
Sriracha Hot Sauce to taste
Add vegan mayonnaise and sriracha hot sauce to taste to a bowl. Mix well.
???? Pickled Onions:
160g / 1 medium Red Onion
1 Tablespoon White Vinegar
1 Tablespoon Sugar (I added cane sugar)
1/8 Teaspoon Salt
Add the onions, vinegar, sugar and salt to a bowl. Mix well. You can store it in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days.
▶️ METHOD:
Finely grate the sweet potato using the finer side of the grater. Finely chop green onion and cilantro (coriander leaves). Mince or grate the ginger & garlic. THOROUGHLY MASH THE COOKED CHICKPEAS, then add the grated sweet potato, green onion, cilantro, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, paprika, cumin, coriander, black pepper, cayenne pepper, chickpea flour, baking soda, salt, olive oil and mix well. KNEAD THE MIXTURE THOROUGHLY until it forms a dough, this will help breakdown the fibres and the mixture will bind well while forming the patties.
Oil your hands to prevent the mixture from sticking. Scoop the mixture using a 1/3 cup (level it off by removing any excess mixture) and form equal size patties. This recipe makes 12 to 13 patties.
✅ ???? Each patties will be approximately 3+1/4 to 3+1/2 Inches in diameter and anywhere between 3/8 to 1/2 inch thick and 85g approx. of mixture per patty.
PRE-HEAT THE OVEN TO 400F.
Bake the patties in a 400F preheated oven for 30 minutes. Then flip the patties and bake – anywhere between 15 to 25 minutes or UNTIL THE PATTIES ARE GOLDEN BROWN AND FIRM. The patties should not be mushy. Once baked remove from the oven and immediately brush it with a good quality olive oil, while the patties are still hot. ✅ ???? This will add a lot of flavour and also prevent the patties from drying out.
✅ ???? EVERY OVEN IS DIFFERENT SO ADJUST THE BAKING TIME ACCORDINGLY
Add the patties to your burger or wrap or serve it with your favourite dipping sauce. Patties stores well in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 7 to 8 days. This is a good recipe for meal prep.
▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:
???? FINELY GRATE THE SWEET POTATO USING THE FINER SIDE OF THE GRATER
???? Take the time to THOROUGHLY MASH THE COOKED CHICKPEAS
???? KNEAD THE MIXTURE THOROUGHLY until it forms a dough, to breakdown. The mixture will bind well while forming the patties
✅ ???? EVERY OVEN IS DIFFERENT SO ADJUST THE BAKING TIME ACCORDINGLY
???? You can prep the vegetables in advance and store it in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. When ready, add the dry ingredients and make the patties

▶️ METHOD:
Thoroughly wash the vegetables. Start by prepping the vegetables. Cut the potatoes into wedges, chop the green beans in 2+1/2 inch pieces, cut the red onion into 3/8th inch thick slices, finely chop the garlic. Drain 1 can (398ml can) of cooked chickpea OR 2 cups of home cooked chickpeas.
PRE-HEAT THE OVEN TO 400 F.
For the dressing – To a bowl, add the passata/tomato puree, vegetable broth / stock, turmeric and cayenne pepper. Mix thoroughly until spices are well combined. Set aside.
To a 9 x 13 inches baking dish transfer the potatoes wedges and spread it out. Then layer with cooked chickpeas, red onion, green beans and cherry tomatoes. Sprinkle salt evenly all over the vegetable layers and then pour the dressing evenly over the layered vegetables. Then drizzle the olive oil. Lay a piece of parchment paper on top of the vegetables and then cover with aluminium foil. SEAL IT WELL.
✅ ???? LAYER THE VEGETABLES IN THE SUGGESTED ORDER AS IT WORKS THE BEST. Putting Potatoes and Chickpeas at the bottom will allow them to season and cook properly without the other veggies becoming mushy. SO FOLLOW THE ORDER OF THE LAYERING.
Bake it covered at 400 F in a pre-heated oven for 50 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked. (???? To check if the potatoes are cooked, stick a knife through one of the potatoes. If the potatoes are not cooked – cover and bake for longer). Then remove the baking dish from the oven and remove the aluminum foil /parchment paper covering. Bake it UNCOVERED for another 15 minutes.
Remove from oven and let it sit on a wire rack. Garnish with chopped parsley or/and dill, black pepper and drizzle of olive oil. Give it a gentle mix. BE VERY GENTLE WHILE MIXING THE COOKED VEGETABLES THIS WILL PREVENT THE POTATOES FROM BREAKING. Serve hot with a side of crusty bread or rice or/and a green side salad. This makes 4 to 5 servings.
▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:
✅ ???? LAYER THE VEGETABLES IN THE SUGGESTED ORDER AS IT WORKS THE BEST. Putting Potatoes and Chickpeas at the bottom will allow them to season and cook properly without the other veggies becoming mushy. SO FOLLOW THE ORDER OF THE LAYERING.

This will allow the potatoes to cook a bit, before we add the quick cooking vegetables to it.
After 20 minutes, uncover and add the zucchini, green beans, cooked chickpeas, parsley and mix well. Now turn up the heat and bring it to a rapid simmer. Once it starts to simmer, cover the lid and cook on medium heat (DO NOT COOK ON LOW HEAT AT THIS POINT) for about 10 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked to your liking. COOK UNITL THE VEGETABLES ARE SOFT, but at the same time don’t let it get too mushy.
Uncover and turn the heat to medium high and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes or to the desired consistency. PLEASE NOTE – THIS STEW IS NOT SUPPOSE TO BE WATERY. It’s more towards the thicker consistency. Turn off the heat. Garnish with fresh lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil and some chopped fresh parsley. Mix well.
Serve hot with some pita and couscous.
▶️ IMPORTANT NOTES:
???? Adding salt while frying the vegetables will release it’s moisture and help it cook faster so please don’t skip it
???? Every stove is different so regulate the heat as required. Cooking time and intensity of heat may vary depending on the type of stove you are using

???? Let me know in the comments if you enjoyed my vegan quinoa recipe.
▶️ RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (Servings 3 to 4 servings)
???? To Cook Quinoa:
1 Cup / 190g Toasted Quinoa (I have used tri-colour quinoa)
1+1/4 Cup / 300ml Water
???? Other Ingredients:
1 Cup / 125g Red Bell Pepper – thinly sliced
1 Cup / 100g Purple Cabbage – Shredded
1 Cup / 100g Carrot – Cut into julienne strips
1 Cup / 150g Cucumber – cut into small pieces
1/2 Cup / 65g Red Onion – chopped
1/2 Cup / 25g Green Onion – chopped
1/2 Cup / 15g Cilantro (Coriander leaves) – chopped
1/2 Cup / 65g Toasted Peanuts
???? SALAD DRESSING:
3 Tablespoon Lemon Juice OR TO TASTE
1 Teaspoon Ginger – Grated or minced
1/2 Teaspoon Garlic – Grated or minced
2 Tablespoon Soy Sauce or Tamari
2 Tablespoon Maple syrup
2 Tablespoon Sesame Oil or to taste
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
Salt to Taste (I have added 1/4 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt)
1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
▶️ METHOD:
Start by chopping the vegetables and set it aside.
Toast the quinoa on medium to medium-heat (depending on the heat of your stove) for about 2 minutes or until the seeds starts to crackle and releases it’s nutty aroma. By now your kitchen should be filled with this toasty nutty aroma 🙂
IMMEDIATELY transfer the toasted quinoa to a sieve – spread it out and allow it to cool down completely.
???? PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT LEAVE the toasted quinoa in the hot pan, otherwise it may end up burning
Once the quinoa has cooled down, wash it thoroughly. Transfer the washed quinoa to a wide pan and add the water. Turn on the stove to medium-high heat and bring it to a boil. Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cook for about 10 minutes or until the quinoa is cooked. DO NOT LET THE QUINOA GET MUSHY, that will ruin the dish. As soon as the quinoa is cooked, transfer it to a large mixing bowl and spread it our evenly and allow the quinoa to cool down completely.
While the quinoa is cooling, prepare the dressing. To a small bowl add lemon juice, grated/minced ginger, garlic, soy sauce, maple syrup, sesame oil, olive oil, salt, cayenne pepper and mix thoroughly. Set it aside.
By now the quinoa would have cooled down, if not, wait till it completely cools down. Add the bell pepper, purple cabbage, carrot, cucumber, red onion, green onion, cilantro and peanuts to the mixing bowl with quinoa. Stir the dressing again to make sure everything is well incorporated. Then add the dressing to the quinoa and veggies and mix well.
You can eat it right away, BUT I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO CHILL THE SALAD IN THE REFRIDGERATOR FOR A FEW HOURS BEFORE SERVING. This will allow the flavours to blend and it tastes so good cold
This recipes is perfect for meal prep / meal planning, because it stores well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days – if stored well in an airtight container.
▶️ IMPORTANT NOTES:
???? Every stove is different so regulate the heat as required. If at any point you notice the pan is getting over heated, then reduce the heat
???? Once the quinoa is toasted, right away transfer it to a sieve or a plate for it to cool down. Please DO NOT LEAVE IT in the hot pan, otherwise it may end up burning
???? Wash the toasted quinoa, only when it has completely cooled down
???? Regarding cooking the quinoa, do not let the quinoa get mushy. Cook for 10 minutes or just until quinoa is cooked but still holds it’s shape
???? After you mix the dressing with the quinoa and veggies, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO CHILL IT IN THE REFRIDGERATOR FOR A FEW HOURS BEFORE SERVING. This will allow the flavours to blend and tastes so good cold
???? This recipes is perfect for meal prep / meal planning, as it stores in the refrigerator for up to 4 days – if stored well in an airtight container.
Enjoy!

Turn off the heat and garnish with lemon zest, lemon juice, parsley, Goof quality extra virgin olive oil. Serve hot with fresh pita and a side salad.
