Simmered Lentils

Ingredients

1 cup of dried lentils – soaked in water for at least 1 hour

1 onion – sliced

5 cloves of garlic – crushed& chopped

1 healthy handful of Italian parsley – chopped

1 vine ripe tomato – chopped

Dash of red pepper flakes

Heat a medium sauce pan with a drizzle of olive oil and place the onion, garlic and parsley and sauté until the onion is clear on low.

Add the lentils, tomato, chicken broth, lemon juice and seasonings: continue to simmer on low for about 45 – 50 minutes.

Serve this as a side dish with an extra drizzle of olive oil. The flavors are wonderful and hearty.

Enjoy with Lots of Love,
