Breakfast Lentil Strata

Ingredients:

1 tbsp. Smart Balance

4 cups Whole Wheat Bread, cubed

1 cup Cooked or Canned Lentils

1 Apple, diced

1/2 cup Raisins or Craisins (these are rich in iron!)

1/2 cup Oats

1/4 cup Walnuts

1/4 cup Almonds

1/4 cup Pecans

1/4 cup Flax Seeds

3 Eggs

1/2 cup Vanilla Soy Milk

2 tbsp. Honey

1/2 cup Vanilla or Pumpkin Greek Yogurt

Add: Salt and Cinnamon

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and coat a glass baking dish with Smart Balance. Combine Bread, Lentils, Apple, Raisins, Oats, Almonds, Walnuts and Flax Seeds in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the Eggs, Milk, Honey, Cinnamon and Salt and mix well with a whisk. Pour the Milk Mixture over the Bread Mixture and mix thoroughly until all of the Bread cubes are moistened. Evenly spread the mixture into the glass baking sheet and top with pecans. Bake for approximately 30 minutes or until the center is cooked.

Cool for five minutes and serve over Greek Yogurt. Vanilla or Pumpkin works great!
