Start your day the right way.
Notes
1
The Night Before: Soak the lentils: Add ½ cup dry lentils to a bowl with enough water to cover by a few inches. Add 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar. Soak overnight or for at least 8 hours. Drain and rinse before using.
2
Day 2: Preheat oven to 400°F.
3
In a large skillet, heat coconut oil over medium. Add chopped onion and cook 5–8 minutes, until golden and soft.
4
Add ground turkey, salt, cinnamon, turmeric, and cloves. Sauté until meat is browned about 8–10 minutes.
5
Add greens and cook until greens wilted, about 4 min
6
Remove skillet from heat. Stir in chopped apples, raisins, pre soaked drained lentils, and sweet potatoes. (Don’t add flax yet.)
7
Transfer everything into a large baking dish. Add 1 cup water or broth to help cook the lentils while baking.
8
Cover tightly with foil and bake for 45–55 minutes, or until sweet potatoes and lentils are tender.
9
Remove from oven, stir in ground flaxseed while warm. Let sit uncovered for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
10
Top each meal off with a fourth of a cup of sauerkraut and yogurt. Enjoy! :)
