What a wonderful post and story, Lizzie. We do eat a lot of lentils and beans in this area, lentils especially around the turn of the year, in late December, as they are said to bring good luck for the new year. And fennels, too! I roast them or stew them and serve them as a side dish. Recently I had a primavera pasta with asparagus, cherry tomatoes and fennels and I loved it. Thanks for the lovely post!
Your lentil recipes sound absolutely delicious, especially the lentil salad with roast cherry tomatoes, fennel, black olives, hazelnuts, and rosemary. It's amazing to be in your kitchen. Thank you for sharing these mouthwatering recipes!

Thanks Sinu! I love the tradition of lentils at Christmas and New Year! I love the idea of the asparagus, tomato and fennel pasta!
