Bean and Lentil Recipes: Everyday Nutrition from Your Pantry
(Digital eBook)

• Stocking and Storing Dried and Canned Legumes
  Dried legumes cost less per serving and let you control sodium and texture. Canned legumes save time and need no soaking.
• Quick-Soak and Pressure-Cook Methods for Busy Weeks
  Dried beans and whole lentils benefit from soaking before cooking. Soaking reduces cooking time, improves texture, and can make legumes easier to digest.
• Hearty Soups and Stews That Freeze Well
  A good soup or stew starts with a flavorful liquid. For bean-based soups, water works, but a simple vegetable or chicken stock adds depth without extra effort.
• Salads and Grain Bowls for Lunch and Light Dinners
  A grain bowl starts with three components: a base, a protein, and vegetables. Cooked beans or lentils serve as the protein.
• Bean-Based Spreads, Dips, and Burgers
  A good spread starts with cooked beans that hold their shape but break down easily. White beans, cannellini, and navy beans work well because their skins are thin and their flesh is creamy.
• Global Flavors: Dal, Chili, Cassoulet, and More
  Dal refers to both the split legume and the finished dish. Red lentils cook in fifteen minutes without soaking, making them the fastest option for weeknight meals.
