This cdish is unique. The flavors of lentil, zucchini, cauliflower, tomato, and herbs complement each other well.
I have used yellow lentil in this recipe. Feel free to use black, red, or brown too. Lentil is a great source of protein. It is very high in folate and iron. Lentil has the properties to reduce heart diseases.
I used my favorite vegetables in the dish. They also complement the texture of lentil. You can add more veggies like squash, broccoli, or carrot.
This dish is best served with rice or tortilla.
