Coconut, Lentil & Spinach Dahl
"Rich in plant-based protein and fibre, this comforting dahl supports digestive health and blood sugar regulation. Spinach provides iron and essential vitamins, while the warming spices offer antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits, helping to support the immune system and reduce inflammation. Creamy coconut adds healthy fats to nourish hormones and aid nutrient absorption. Finish with a squeeze of lime for a dose of vitamin C, which helps increase the absorption of iron from the spinach and lentils," says nutritional therapist Alexa Mullane.
