Recipes, Wellness Blog

Warm Up with This Hearty Vegetarian Stew!

Looking for a cozy meal that’ll fill you up and nourish your body? Then look no further than this amazing lentil stew! It’s perfect for chilly winter evenings and packed with goodness.

Why Lentils?

Lentils are often the unsung heroes of the pantry, but they shouldn’t be! They’re incredibly affordable and loaded with nutrients:

  • B vitamins: Essential for energy and metabolism.
  • Magnesium: Supports muscle function and relaxation.
  • Zinc: Boosts immunity and keeps your skin glowing.
  • Potassium: Helps regulate blood pressure and keeps your heart happy.
  • Fiber: Keeps you feeling full and your digestion on track.
  • Protein: Over 25% protein, making them a fantastic meat alternative.
  • Iron: Crucial for carrying oxygen throughout your body (especially important for vegetarians).

The Best Part? You Can Make it Your Own!

This recipe is a fantastic base, but don’t be afraid to get creative! It’s all about creating a dish that warms your soul and satisfies your taste buds. Read More

Yang energy is essential for all bodily functions, including digestion, circulation, and immune system function. When our Yang energy is weak, we are more susceptible to disease and illness.

Here are some of the benefits of staying warm from a Chinese medicine perspective: Read More
