Canadian Lentils with Sausage, Spinach and Veggies<\/h2>\n

The United Nations has declared 2016 the International Year of Pulses (IYP). Canada is one of the world\u2019s largest pulse producing nations, growing lentils, beans, peas, and chickpeas. In celebration of IYP, Chef Michael Smith<\/a> and Canadian Lentils<\/a> invited\u00a0Canadian bloggers and foodies to submit a pitch video featuring our own signature lentil recipe, and I threw my recipe and video in the ring.<\/p>\n

If I win I will\u00a0be invited for an all-expenses paid trip to Prince Edward Island (where I’ve been dying to go!). AND in Chef Michael Smith\u2019s test kitchen I’ll\u00a0get to go behind the scenes and learn trade secrets from Chef Smith himself! Fingers crossed for me people!<\/p>\n

I filmed and edited by myself as I had limited time and no one else was around, so hey, what else could I do. Using my new Canon T6i <\/a>and Windows Movie Maker I cooked up a Lentil, Sausage, Spinach and veggie stew in my favourite All-Clad<\/a> pans!<\/p>\n
