BANANA OAT BUTTERMILK PANCAKES
Surprise and delight someone this weekend with these fluffy yet hearty, stealthily healthy banana oat pancakes. Extra points if you serve them in bed with piping hot coffee and the New York Times.
CHAI SPICED LENTILS with MILLET, CURRANTS & PISTACHIOS
These Chai Spiced Lentils with Millet, Currants & Pistachios pack flavor and nutritional punches. French green lentils are livened up with orange vinaigrette and warming spices, then served over fluffy millet studded with crunchy pistachios and sweet-tart currants.
Lentils are loaded with fiber, protein, and iron, and the addition of spinach brings vitamins C and E, potassium, magnesium, and more iron. Millet is a mild, nutty, gluten-free grain rich in antioxidants with a low glycemic index. And the pistachios don’t just add crunch—they provide great doses of vitamin B6, potassium, and essential amino acids.
