This recipe is a great, simple way to enjoy lentils and brown rice and was very good just as is! I also enjoy the potential for experimenting. The second time, I added a 1/4 c more rice and 1 cup crushed tomatoes. WOW! Very flavourful! Can reduce sodium by using 1 c water, 1 c chicken broth, too! - 2/6/10
