Hearty beef mince and lentil chilli
Protein-rich Phase 2 chilli with lean beef mince and lentils, filling and spicy.
Hearty beef mince and lentil chilli is a comforting one-pan dish that fills the kitchen with the aroma of cumin and smoked paprika. Lean mince and earthy lentils simmer together with tomato into a thick, spicy chilli that's only better the next day. Comfort food that's nourishing and filling at the same time.
This chilli fits nicely into Phase 2 because the lean beef mince provides plenty of protein and the lentils add slow-release carbohydrates and fibre. That combination makes it a protein-rich dish that sits seamlessly with a protein diet and keeps you satisfied for a long time. It's precisely the fibre and protein together that give that hearty, contented satiety you can benefit from in this phase.
Lovely with a spoonful of lean yoghurt and a sprig of coriander on top, or a few lime wedges on the side.
