  1. Hi Shashi! I will have to try that sugar cleanse. It would be tough, but I imagine once you’ve successfully done it, it must get much easier and you must feel so good. I’m sorry about your full-time position…it’s tough times when that happens, but it opens a newer chapter too. All my best to you in what you decide to pursue. ๐Ÿ™‚ Your lentil shakshuka looks so delicious – I just want to dive into one of those eggs with a fork and have it run into the lentils!

  2. Yah! Shashi you were destined to be a full time food blogger!

    I remember reading about the situation in your work, when you wrote about it in July and I was hoping that you would move forward and try out blogging full time.

    I know you can do this.

    And lentils rule over beans any day for me, so I’m glad you made this with them. ๐Ÿ™‚

    So looking forward to seeing where your full time blogging adventure takes you. ๐Ÿ˜€

  3. What a brilliant idea, Shashi! I love shakshuka, and why not healthify it even more by adding lentils?

    All the best with your new venture, too! That’s incredibly exciting and, like you say, sometimes we need a little kick to make us brave enough to just go for it.

    You’ll do great, I know it! ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. Shashi, I’m sorry to hear about your job. But every problem presents a new opportunity, and it looks like you’re heading into it with wide open arms and a lot of spunk. You’re gonna do great!
    And thanks for the shout-out on the cookies!
    This shakshuka looks incredible. I’m such a fan of the usual kind, and this is a great twist!

  5. I don’t think I’ve had lentils like this, but it looks so delicious…and so comforting! I’m all about one pan…err, one skillet…meals lately, and this one has the added bonus of being comfort food. So sign me up please! Also, congrats (I think?) on wrapping up the graphic designer job. As you pointed out, when one door closes another opens…so hello internet! You’re gonna rock it! Thanks for the link on the crumble…I’ll put some of that in the mail to you today! ๐Ÿ™‚

  6. First of all this looks great.
    Secondly–I think God is prompting you for bigger things with your blog–what you share is incredible. Prayers for a bight new beginning! Love you!

  7. OK. This dish looks super good as well as tasty. I’ve never tried any thing like it but I’m all about doing new things!
    Speaking of new things, congratulations on taking your next step! Very exciting. May God guide you to where you need to be. Lastly, how did the sugar cleanse make you feel?

  8. I have also done a sugar detox before, recently also a smoothie detox! see am on a weight loss journey and I have been trying best to keep off of the “bad foods” congratulations to you! And I love this shakshuka! Like I have added alot of different things to shakshuka but lentils? that’s genius! cant wait to see how it tastes.

  9. Sometimes, God closes doors because it’s time to move forward. He knows we won’t move unless circumstances force us to. So I am sure that there must be something good in stored for you.
    BTW this shakshuka looks awesome Shashi. ๐Ÿ™‚

  10. Good morning friend, headed to the airport for the long weekend in Bham, bur first, want to say congrats on your new venture. You will do this and you will do it well. I BELIEVE in you. http://byfaithonline.com/believing-is-just-the-beginning/ God has a way of opening doors in interesting ways and He blesses us “exceedingly abundantly more than we can even think or imagine.” That’s my prayer for you today Shashi. The shakshuka looks delicious and I am grabbing my fork!!! Loving all the garlic!! Woo hoo. Have a beautiful weekend my friend. XOXO

  11. 4 weeks without sugar? Well, I’m impressed! I wish I could stay a week at least without refined sugar. But we definitely need to celebrate the end of your sober life. Let’s eat all the dessert you’ve got:) I wish I could send you my baked stuff, but I only have homemade ice cream, and you didn’t mention it:) Shakshuka…I discovered and tried this dish only this year, and I do like it. Indeed, what not to like about Shakshuka, right? This version did surprise me – I like the addition of lentils. Sounds and looks fantastic!

  12. Goodness, Shashi, you always make the most mouthwatering recipes! I already ate dinner (twice!) and I’m hungry again! Great job to you on finishing up on your sugar cleanse!

    I needed an excuse to turn on my oven, so this is honestly a perfect one, haha. I just need to get diced tomatoes + tomato paste and I’m golden! *-* Can’t wait to try it out!

  13. I didn’t really register that there was no spices in the recipe till it was ready for the oven at which point I added some cumin, cayenne, and a mix of some other things I had as well as salt and pepper. Wasn’t really enough and the dish still came out quite bland. It’s an easy recipe to make but you should definitely add spices if you want to enjoy eating it.

  14. This looks so delicious! I am just checking that the lentils arenโ€™t canned .. I assume it is dry lentils used here. Looking forward to trying this! Best wishes fir your future endeavours too!

  15. I going to make this for Ramadan morning. Can this be made in the slow cooker overnight? If so, how long should I cook? Will it be the same amount of water?

    1. Hello Mrs Ahmad,Thank you so much for writing to ask me this. Unfortunately, I have not tried making this in a slow cooker. And I think the eggs might overcook – unless you cook dried lentils in the slow cooker with the other ingredients and then add the eggs in the last 10 minutes of the coking process?I would recommend for theย best result that this be cooked on a stove top. Lentils cook quickly and I feel that is the best way.I’m sorry if this doesn’t answer your question well.Thanks again for visiting my site and taking the time to comment.
