Brown Rice And Lentils Recipes

Steps:

• In a big skillet, bring the water to a boil.
• Add the garlic, carrot, and onion.
• Cook until tender.
• Add the cumin, coriander, brown rice, lentils, cooked bacon, and beef broth.
• Cover, lower heat and simmer for about 45 minutes, or until lentils are tender.
• Fluff with fork.
• Stir in cilantro.

Steps:

• Make the burgers: Combine 2 cups water, the lentils, rice, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook until tender, 40 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, 10 minutes. If there is water left in the saucepan, cook, uncovered, until evaporated.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and carrot and cook, stirring, until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add the kale, garlic, cumin, curry powder and allspice. Cook, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons water and cook, stirring, until the liquid evaporates. Season with salt and pepper.
• Pulse the oats in a food processor until finely ground with some coarse pieces. Add the warm lentil mixture and the vegetable mixture and pulse until combined but still chunky. Season with salt and pepper. Let cool. Form into four 4-inch patties (about 1/2 inch thick). Transfer to a baking sheet and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce: Combine the lemon juice and garlic in a small bowl; let sit 5 minutes. Whisk in the tahini, 2 tablespoons water and the hot sauce, thinning with more water, if needed. Season with salt and more hot sauce to taste.
• Preheat a grill to medium high. Brush the burgers with olive oil on both sides. Grill until well marked, about 3 minutes per side. Grill the pitas until warmed. Serve the burgers in the pitas with lettuce, tomatoes and pickles and the tahini sauce.

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a 9 by 13-inch glass baking dish. Set aside.
• Remove the thick stem from the center of each chard leaf. Cut each leaf in half lengthwise. Trim the ends from the leaves to make each leaf-half about 7 inches long and 5 inches wide. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the chard leaves and cook for 10 seconds. Remove the leaves and rinse with cold water. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
• For the filling: In a medium bowl, mix together the brown rice, arugula, goat cheese, lentils, mint, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and garlic. Season with additional salt and pepper.

Spoon the remaining sauce on top and sprinkle with the Parmesan. Drizzle with olive oil or dot the top with butter, if using, and bake until the cheese begins to brown and the rolls are heated through, about 25 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes and serve.
