Lentil and Chickpea Stew

These last days were a little bit crazy for me, too busy working! That recipe is perfect for busy moms or dads, 5 minutes to prepare, 20 minutes to cook, yeah!

Simple and delicious! I love that 🙂

This dish is full of proteins! My 17 y. old son was so happy, after 2 hours of working out, it was a great for him.

Lentils are also full of good nutritious.
