MLLA 9 – Braised Peas with Lentils, Bacon and Pikeperch

MLLA 9 – Braised Peas with Lentils, Bacon and Pikeperch

Laurie at Mediterranean Cooking in Alaska and The Well-Seasoned Cook Susan are celebrating legumes with the ninth installment of the My Legume Love Affair event – and I am happy to join in. For the event, I chose a recipe from the BBC Good Food magazine, titled Braised peas with bacon, lentils & cod. I didn’t use cod, though, because I still had two lovely fillets of zander (or pikeperch) sitting in my freezer. I have to admit, though, that the cod on the Good Food website looks a lot better than my dish. I like the simplicity of this dish, and it is put together in a breeze if you use canned lentils, as suggested by the recipe author. I opted for dried (pardina) lentils which were cooked...

No Croutons Required – Citrus Lentil Soup

No Croutons Required – Citrus Lentil Soup

For the monthly event from Lisa’s Kitchen, No Croutons Required, participants are asked to serve a soup (or salad) which is vegetarian and should feature this month’s ingredient. In June, it is legumes. The theme for June is soups or salads featuring legumes because beans and pulses are an important part of a healthy vegetarian diet. Whole, or split, big or small, anything belonging to the legume family qualifies. Submissions are due no later than June 20th.

Soup Glorious Soup – Sicilian Simplicity

Soup Glorious Soup – Sicilian Simplicity

I love lentil soup, and in particular hearty, wholesome lentil stews – with potatoes and sausage and bacon, or weiner sausages, or the tiny little pork sausage meatballs my mom adds… it is one of the easiest, most satisfying winter dishes I know. But sometimes, it has to be Sicilian Lentil Soup for me – a wonderful light and easy, summerly kind of soup with lots of fresh fennel and a pungent bite of hot pepper, fresh tomato and a drop or two of thick, dark green olive oil… so that’s what I chose as my entry to the “Soup Glorious Soup” event hosted by A Veggie Venture. And it is a vegetarian and even vegan recipe It is very easy to make, very economical, and oh so tasty!
