    This is delicious! I never would've thought of mixing brown rice with lentils... now I can get my boost of fiber and protein all in one! - 11/4/11

    Incredible!
    Love this! I used some homemade stock I had on hand and sauteed the onions before I put them in. I also had a half of a potato I threw in. I had to add more liquid, but it was awesome. Looking forward to leftovers tomorrow! (my 17 mo liked it too!) - 10/5/10

    1 cup of cooked brown rice or "raw" brown rice? does the rice cook in the dish? I want to make this tomorrow - sounds delicious! - 4/18/09

    Hi,
    Thanks for the recipe which I will try.
    I love the comments about the "chicken" broth...when I read the recipe, it says "vegetable" broth.
    Love those "crock pot" recipes.
