LENTILS WITH WATERCRESS
Watercress is an amazing ingredient to incorporate into meals: from its hearty list of vitamins to its sharp peppery flavor. It can also be wilted or enjoyed raw. While the ends of the stems can be tough, most of the stems are tender, juicy and edible. Look for watercress in clamshells or bags of pretrimmed pieces or in a bunch.

HAM AND LENTIL SOUP
This lentil soup with ham is a combination of two soup recipes I came across and adapted. I often serve it for Sunday dinner, making enough so there are leftovers for my husband's lunch thermos. A bricklayer, he regularly works outside during winter. -Andi Haug, Hendrum, Minnesota
