Ingredients:
2 cup lentils
5 cup water
28 oz canned tomatoes
1 bell pepper, chopped
2 jalapenos, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp chili powder
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano salt to taste more cayenne, to taste
Instructions:
Rinse the lentils and cook until soft. There will be extra water, but
since this is soup, that's okay. Add the tomatoes and veggies, and cook
until the onion is soft. Add the spices to taste.
Variations: As someone else pointed out, adding bulgur (or brown rice) is
tasty and satisfying. Add 1/2 cup of grain to the lentils and add another 1
cup of water.
Shredded carrots and corn are also good. In fact, I've found that you can
make just about any gloopy mass into chili by adding chili powder.
:-)
Kidney beans are also very good in this recipe.
