Our Curried Turmeric Lentils and Rice was inspired by the legendary curries of India.  It is a colorful blend of brown lentils, red bell peppers, green flecks of spinach and distinctive bright yellow rice colored by turmeric.  Historically used in Ayurvedic medicine, turmeric has been studied extensively for its health benefits such as improving memory, arthritis, depression and reducing inflammation, among other things.

In addition to turmeric, our Curried Turmeric Lentils and rice features a complex blend of several spices, onion, garlic, and a slight zip from crushed red pepper.  It is excellent accented with fruits such as raisins, dried mango or chopped apple.  Or try adding some cashews, cilantro, unsweetened yogurt, or roasted cauliflower.  Finally, if you are ready for a real Yumbini adventure, experiment with one of our recipes that combine Curried Turmeric Lentils with unique spices such as mint and cinnamon for a whole new flavor.
