Wednesday's Menu

One of my best friends is from Colombia and always made the BEST lentils when she and I lived together. I finally have a comparable recipe and I LOVE making it. I hope you will like it too...

Ingredients:

1 bag dry lentils
2 potatoes
2 big tomatoes
1 onion
8-10 cups water

Directions:

Put the lentils in the water, add salt and boil over medium heat. While lentils are cooking, peel the potatoes, cut them in small squares (not too small...like you would do for potato salad). Next, cut tomatoes and onion into small pieces (I actually diced them in the food processor). Then put them in a pan and simmer them down into a sauce. When the lentils are almost soft enough, add the squared potatoes to the mix. Once the potatoes are soft, add the tomato sauce and enjoy! Edward likes them over brown rice, but I just eat them like they are.
