Whipped Ricotta & Red Lentils

Directions

1. Rinse and drain lentils and combine with 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) of water in a saucepan. Cook on medium heat until tender, approximately 5 minutes. Drain off excess water and rinse under cold water. Drain thoroughly.
2. Combine lentils, ricotta, yogurt, almonds, vinegar, garlic, thyme, and honey in a food processor and blend until smooth.
3. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve in a bowl alongside your favourite crackers or dolloped on toasted triangles. Garnish with fresh thyme, almonds, and a drizzle of olive oil.
