Healthy, Nutritious Recipes for 'These Times'

[Truffoiled]

As in, cost of food and energy.

An acquaintance runs a charity that supports refugees primarily, but she's also linked up with a local food bank. She/they are putting together a booklet of ideas for healthy meals that can be prepared and cooked quickly.

The emphasis is equally on cost and nutrition - the diet-linked health gap is widening so drastically, and they are trying to address this.

If anyone's got a go-to easy, healthy, cheap recipe that is lightish on expensive kitchen equipment (a blender, for example, is okay) and cooking time, and wants to share it, I'd be grateful.

It might be useful for other MNers too!

Lentil soup;

One onion, chopped finely or grated
One carrot, as above
Half a bag of lentils
2 vegetable stock cubes

Fry off the onion in a bit of oil or butter, add the lentils, carrot, cover with water and add stock cubes, cook for 20-30 minutes. Simple but delicious and filling. Can add bacon or ham if you like but it doesn't need it.

Should have added, use red lentils.
