Cheap Lentil Side Dish Done in 5 Minutes
This Lentil Side Dish is quickly made and still very tasty. It is so easy to make this while on the road. We love to add this Quick Lentil Side Dish to our lunch during the day. It is not only made very quick, but it is also very cheap. You can find a jar/can of lentils in almost every supermarket, and in Europe it is mostly under 1euro. You then have to find Balsamic Vinegar, which is not that expensive and will last you a long time. And Garlic powder or Garlic flakes, you can also add in fresh garlic if you desire. This recipe will probably cost you less than 2 euros. When you have the basics at home, it is even easier. We always have some jars of lentils on hand to create this.
