This seems like the weirdest of combinations, but it was oh so good. At my disposal were fresh, juicy, Colorado peaches that I want to eat at every meal...piles of cucumbers from the garden... + mint from the farmer's market. All together? Why not.
Peaches, Cucumbers + Lentils
1 cup rice (uncooked)
1 cup lentils (uncooked)
ginger, peeled + grated
cayenne
salt
peaches
cucumbers
mint
coconut
pecans
Bring rice, lentils, ginger, cayenne, salt, + 4 cups water to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until rice and lentils are tender, stirring periodically, and adding more water if necessary. Place the rest of the ingredients on top + enjoy! (The four of us had enough of the lentil/rice mixture left over to use as "taco meat" later in the week.)
Love,
