Ingredients

    ¼ cup (60 mL) chocoloate chips, melted

    ½ cup (125 mL) split red lentils, oven roasted*

    ½ cup (125 mL) whole red lentils, oven roasted and cooled**

    ¼ cup (60 mL) pistachios, unsalted

    ½ cup (125 mL) pumpkin seeds, raw, unsalted

    ¼ cup (60 mL) almonds, sliced

    ½ cup (125 mL) freeze dried berries


Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, fold chocolate chips and split red lentils together, and spoon into clusters on a sheet tray lined in parchment paper to create “clusters”. Allow to cool in a freezer until solid.
  2. Toss all ingredients together and store in sealed container until use.

To prepare oven roasted lentils:
* Pre-soak split lentils for 1 hour, or cook normally. Drain well, lay out evenly on a prepared tray, and roast for 15-20 minutes at 400⁰F (200⁰C), stirring every 5-10 minutes.
** Pre-soak whole lentils for 12 hours, or cook normally. Drain well, lay out evenly on a prepared tray, and roast for 30 minutes at 400⁰F (200⁰C).
