Honey-Roasted Carrots

Lentils are very high in folate and fibre and are a good source of vegetable protein. Serve with a whole grain baguette and a salad of half spinach and half romaine tossed with Lemon Pesto Buttermilk Dressing. Buttermilk sounds as though it should be high in fat but, in fact, has only 1% milk fat and delivers as much calcium as milk. Any leftover soup makes a tasty lunch the next day.
Beat the spring blues with this sunny and bright orange soup. It's as flavourful as it is good for you. For a pretty presentation, sprinkle with thinly sliced green onions and drizzle with a little more sesame oil.
Couscous makes an ideal weeknight side dish because of its quick cooking time. Using whole wheat couscous gives a healthy boost of fibre.
