Red Lentil Marinara Pasta
We are always looking for healthy ways to remake some of our favorite meals. For example – pasta marinara. This recipe is gluten-free, plant-based and full of protein. Did you know there are 36 grams of protein in 2 cups lentils? That makes this recipe not only bursting with Italian flavor, but also extremely healthy. This recipe is courtesy of our registered dietitian, Rachel Mistry. We hope you enjoy!
