Good morning! Last week I wrote about my experience cooking a HelloFresh meal for the first time, so in case you missed it, I wanted to share that discount code again. You can find it at the end of this post.

I’ve already blabbed about how much I love fall and soup weather, so it’s a great time to talk about one of my kitchen staples: lentils. October is Vegetarian Month, so HelloFresh is highlighting these little legumes. Lentils are one of my favorite sources of vegetarian protein—they’re filling (thanks to the combo of protein and fiber), inexpensive, and incredibly versatile. I especially love them in soup, but they’re also wonderful in salads, tossed with roasted veggies, or enjoyed with or in place of pasta or other grain. They’re the perfect Meatless Monday staple. Speaking of meatless goodness, my recipe for tofu mushroom miso soup was recently included in this round-up for Shape magazine.

Want to learn more about lentils? I love this nifty infographic created by the nutrition team at HelloFresh.

What’s your favorite way to enjoy lentils?
