Ingredients
-
3/4 cup dry lentils
3/4 cup dry brown rice
4 cups water
4 chicken or vegetable bouillon cubes
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 Tbsp olive oil
Directions
In a 2-quart saucepan bring the water to a boil. As the water is heating, add the oil, lentils, rice, bouillon, chili powder, cumin, onion powder, and garlic powder. Bring the whole thing to a nice fat boil. Reduce the heat to low. Place a lid on the lentils and allow the mixture to simmer for about 45 to 50 minutes. The water should be mostly absorbed. You may serve this as is, or topped with a little cheddar cheese if desired.
* If you are having a busy day and don't have time to cook this on the stove, it can cook in the crock pot on low for about 6 to 8 hours or high for 3 hours instead.

Really delicious. Even my son (6) ate 2. I did tweak it up. Filled Tortillas with mix , added some shredded cheddar, rolled them up, placed them in a casserole dish, poured Enchilada sauce over the top and sprinkled some more cheese, covered with foil and baked it for about 30 minutes. Yummy. - 7/19/10
