Ingredients

    1 cup dry lentils
    2 cup broth
    1 cup water
    1/2 cup chopped carrots
    1/2 cup chopped celery
    1/2 chopped onion
    1 clove chopped garlic
    1/2 lb smoked sausage links (1/4 inch slices)
    1/4 to 1/2 cup barbecue sauce

Directions

Although I usually make this in the crockpot, it turns out fine on the stove with a little additional liquid.

Combine lentils, broth, water, carrots, and celery in the crockpot. Turn on high/low (depending on how soon you want it done) and let this begin warming up. In a small pan sprayed with Pam or olive oil, sautee onions, garlic, and sliced sausage. Add onions, garlic, and sausage to the mix. Cook on low for approx 4 hours, high for approx 2 hours - until lentils are tender but not quite done. Add barbecue sauce and cook for additional 10 minutes.

Makes approx 4 - 1 cup servings.
