Prendi lenticchie e porcini,una bontà unica

mushrooms

🥗Healthier: shiitake mushrooms

💰Cheaper: button mushrooms

Button mushrooms are more affordable and widely available.

vegetable broth

🥗Healthier: homemade vegetable stock

💰Cheaper: water

Water can be used to reduce costs, though it may lack depth of flavor.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is less expensive while still providing fat for sautéing.

parsley

🥗Healthier: coriander

💰Cheaper: dried parsley

Dried parsley is more cost-effective and has a longer shelf life.

If using dried porcini mushrooms, soak them in water and filter the water to use in cooking the lentils. If using clean dried mushrooms, add them directly to the pot with the lentils without soaking.

In a pot, combine the lentils, porcini mushrooms, chopped onion, diced carrots, chopped celery, chili pepper, minced garlic, and water.

Add the granulated broth, rosemary, and sage to the pot.

Bring to a boil and then simmer until the lentils are cooked through.
