Ingredients

    Ingredients:
    *Goya Lentils, 2 cup
    Green Peppers (bell peppers), 1 cup, chopped
    Onions, raw, .25 cup, chopped
    Garlic, 2 tsp
    Cabbage, fresh, 1 cup, shredded
    Red Ripe Tomatoes, 4 cup, chopped or sliced
    ! Tbsp Sylvia's Secret Seasoning (blend of basil, thyme, oregano, marjoram, rosemary, & other spices)
    cayenne, black, & white pepper to taste

Directions

sort & rinse the lentils - cover with boiling water, cover & let sit while you prepare the vegetables, Keep the tomatoes separate. Drain the water, rinse lentils again then cover with more water - about 6 cups, add all vegetables and seasoning but not the tomatoes - the acid will prevent the lentils from cooking properly and gassy dinner guests are not your friends. Bring to low boil, cover, simmer 30- 40 minutes or until lentils are soft. Add tomatoes and simmer another 15 minutes or until tomatoes are cooked. very good in lettuce or pita wraps.
