Lazy Lentil Stew

Vegetarian Recipe


I couldn't sleep last night so I needed something easy to make today. Hooray for crock pots!


12 oz Bag of dry lentils rinsed and sorted
4 Red potatoes (Don't peel them! The skin is where the magic is.)
1 Small yellow onion
2 to 3 Cups of chopped carrots or baby carrots
1 Can of diced Italian style tomatoes with liquid
1 Packet Onion Soup Mix
Minced garlic cloves (Mmm... garlic...)
1 Cube of Cilantro seasoning
Salt and pepper, bay leaf, 
3 1/2 Cups of water (you may need to add more near the end, lentils expand)


Chops all ingredients into bite sizes. Toss in crock pot and add seasonings. You won't need much, thanks to the Italian tomatoes. You could use the Chipotle tomatoes if you wanna go spicy.
Set on low for 6 hours. If not done, crank that shit to high and test every 15 minutes.
