This is LITERALLY a one-pot wonder.  My favorite kind of meal.  This is another reason why I'm obsessed with my pressure cooker!  Easy to make quick meals that taste amazing and clean up is a cinch! Lentils are one of my favorite foods.  They are so easy to make (and quick with a pressure cooker), taste delicious, are incredibly filling, and very nutritious! The beauty of lentils is you can make them a million different ways.  This is just one example below.  Feel free to mix it up with whatever veggies you have, add pancetta, prosciutto, or simply make them plain with just a little garlic, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes with a drizzle of olive oil and shredded Parmesan cheese on top.  Oh the possibilities!  Oh and did I mention they are cheap??  A one pound bag is only about $4-5 and will make enough food for half the week for two people eating it every day! They are so good for you, I can't get enough!  High in protein and fiber, low in calories, carbs, sodium and all the other bad stuff we don't like :)  Below is just what I made tonight, but please feel free to mix it up and let me know what your favorite combos are!  I make lentils almost weekly and will be sure to post other good combos in the future.  I know that when the time comes and I have a family and need a quick nutritious meal on the fly, this will definitely be a good go-to!  Let me know what you guys think!

Well, it's almost the weekend!  Now that I have been working for a whole week, I feel like I kind of understand the whole TGIF thing.  I am definitely not a morning person and so this week, my breakfast has basically revolved around cereal and oatmeal.  So this weekend, I am looking forward to breaking out the eggs and having a real breakfast.  I made this frittata a couple of weeks ago but due to various things keeping me very busy, I have been terribly negligent about posting.  I won't take up too much of your time but I will tell you that this was definitely a fantastic breakfast and would make a great breakfast over the long weekend!
