- This is our favorite lentil chili recipe. We cook it on a slow cooker after
- the first lentil-cooking has been accomplished, but you could follow the
- recipe straight on the stove and do just fine.
-
- Ingredients:
-
- 2c dried lentils
- 3c water
- 2 (or 1) 15oz cans kidney beans, undrained
- 2 medium onions, finely chopped
- 1 green pepper, finely chopped
- 1 celery stalk, finely chopped,
- 8 cloves garlic, minced (don't be shy, it's good!)
- 2 14 1/2 oz cans stewed tomatoes, undrained
- 1 15 oz can tomato sauce
- 1 6 oz can tomato paste
- 1/4 c green chili salsa
- 1 jalapeno chili, finely chopped
- 1/2 c chili powder
- 1 4 oz can diced green chillies, undrained
- 1t salt
-
- In Dutch oven, cover lentils with water and bring to boil.
- Reduce head and simmer 40 minutes or until most of water has
- been absorbed. Add remaining ingredients, stirring after each
- addition. Simmer 2 1/2 to 3 hours, stirring frequently.
- (Here, we set the slow cooker on 3 1/2 out of 5, and cook
- for about 6 hours). Season to taste with salt and
- pepper, if desired. Makes 6 to 8 servings. Good with rice
- or heavy bread!
