Equipment

  • Saucepan
  • Blender
  • Spiralizer

Ingredients

Green Goddess Bowl

  • 1 C green lentils
  • 1 bunch lacinto kale, chopped
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 tsp EVOO optional, omit if oil free
  • 2 zucchinis, spiralized can also create ribbons with a potato peeler
  • 2 english cucumbers, quartered lengthwise and sliced
  • 2 C green peas
  • 3 C french style green beans, halved
  • 1/4 C pumpkin seeds
  • 1/4 C fresh parsley, finely chopped

Green Goddess Sauce

  • 3 lemons, juiced
  • 1/2 C plain coconut milk yogurt any plain yogurt will do
  • 1/2 ripe avocado
  • 1 jalapeno
  • 1/2 bunch cilantro
  • 1/2 bunch parsley
  • 1/4 C mint
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 1 TBSP fresh ginger
  • 1/2 C water more or less for desired texture
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add lentils and simmer for 12-15 minutes until tender but not mushy. I like them pretty firm for this dish. Drain and rinse with cool water.
  • Add chopped kale to a bowl with olive oil and lemon juice. Use your hands to massage the leaves for 15-30 seconds until tender. Massaging kale brings out a delightfully sweet taste and creates a softer texture, making it much less rigid and bitter.
  • Fill the same sauce pan you used for the lentils with water. Bring to a boil and add green beans. Boil for 1-2 minutes until they become just slightly more vibrant and tender. Drain and transfer immediately to an ice bath to cool.
  • Add all ingredients for sauce to a blender and purée until creamy. Season to taste.
  • Arrange all veggies, lentils, and seeds in bowls. Drizzle with sauce right before serving. Toss to combine!
