The lentils in combination with the other ingredients in this dish will bring your breakfast to a whole new powerful level! This dish can be served the next day as well. Simply heat or enjoy cold. Add milk to thin it out if the consistency is too thick. Add your favourite fresh fruit as a garnish - chopped apples would be a delicious inclusion. Play around and try including ingredients such as fresh grated ginger, whole vanilla beans (for a greater vanilla intensity), orange zest or other toasted nuts as garnish. Try substituting chopped dried dates for the brown sugar as a sweetener.
