Lentil Enchiladas Recipe
Ingredients:
3 cup water 1 cup lentils 1 onion, chopped (recipe 1 called for small onion, i 1 used a large one) 1 green pepper, chopped 2 tsp garlic (i used fresh 1 oil-free garlic from a jar) 1 tsp red pepper 1 tsp black pepper 1 tsp cumin 1/2 cup salsa 1 each ff tortillas
OPTIONAL GARNISHES
1 each chopped fresh tomatoes 1 each salsa
Instructions:
Put water and beans in saucepan on med high heat. Add all ingredients except salsa and tortillas. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionlly. Reduce heat and let cook til lentils are soft, about 45 minutes. (Keep stirring because the beans will stick to the bottom of the pot.) Once the beans are mushy, add salsa, stir well.
Place in tortillas, garnish as desired, and enjoy.
NOTE: I didn't soak the beans beforehand and haven't experienced any problems. Mary McD says, in this book, that you don't need to soak lentils.
