Ingredients
2C quinoa2.5C lentils (the usual small package size)2T fresh ground black pepper.
Toss quinoa and into a pot or rice-cooker, along with 2x water (9C).
Rice cooker: set to brown rice and step away. Stovetop: Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer, then keep that up for about 50 minutes.
Be aware that making these together results in a sticky, pasty lentil. I actually _want_ that, because it creates a less crumbly base for curries or whatever else I'm eating.
Add ground black pepper just before eating.
Makes 9-1C servings.
