My family eats a lot of rice and lentils and loves spices! So, when I learned about the Middle Eastern dish mujadara, I had to try it. It quickly became a family favorite for “Meatless Monday,” especially with my son. He even learned to make this for his vegetarian friends at college. This is flavorful and tangy with lemon and warm spices.
This delicious and filling vegan meal is easy to make in a rice cooker or Instant Pot. If you don’t have either, you can make it in a pot on the stove. Make the crispy onions and spiced, milk-free “yogurt” topping while the rice and lentils cook.
