Healthy, hot, filling, and delicious! This is an amazing vegetarian recipe from Wegmans. And to prove how delicious it is, I made it for my husband. He told me it looked funny. I told him to take a bite. Next thing I know I was having to keep him away with one hand while I snapped this picture with the other. He devoured every bit set in front of him! It's that good. So, what are you waiting for??
To make this even better, make the veggie stock yourself - just simmer some onions, carrots and celery for a few hours!
Ingredients
1 c red lentils
2 c water
2 T olive oil
1/2 c diced onion
1/4 c diced celery
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tomato, diced
2 c veggie stock
2 c water
1 1/2 T tabasco
1/8 t tumeric
1/8 t cumin
1/8 c cayenne
1/8 c chili powder
1 t salt
1/2 t pepper
1 green pepper, finely diced
Combine lentils and 2 c water in a pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Remove from heat. Puree half the lentils and liquid.
In another pot, heat olive oil. At medium low heat, add onions, celery and garlic. Stir, cooking for five minutes. Add tomatoes and cook another five minutes. Add stock, water, tabasco, and all other spices. Bring to a simmer. Add all of the lentils (whole and pureed) and stir well. Cook 10 minutes. Add green pepper and cook another five minutes or until lentils are tender.
