Directions

This is so EASY! Rinse the lentils and throw them in a big pot with everything else. Bring it all to a boil and then put the lid on and lower it to as low as possible. Set the timer for 45 minutes. Now-FORGET ABOUT IT! (Just check the burner for safety every now and then. I use gas heat.) After letting it simmer for 45 minutes, take the lid off and smell. You will be amazed! You'll feel like you're cheating . Enjoy!

This recipe was easy to make. However, I found it somewhat bland. Not bad, but probably won't make it again. - 9/13/07
