i Got This Recipe From The Back Of A Package Of Lentils. It's Easy, Cheap, And Good. I Often Substitute 1/2 Can Diced Canned Tomatoes For The Fresh Tomatoes. I Usually Serve With Cornbread And Coleslaw.

1 Cup Lentils
2 Cups Water
1 Medium Onion, Chopped
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
2 Cloves Garlic, Minced
1/2 Cup Rice (basmati Is Very Good)
2 Medium Tomatoes, Coarsely Chopped
2 Cups Chicken Broth
salt And Pepper, To Taste

prepare Lentils: Rinse And Sort Lentils. Cook Lentils In Water For 20 Minutes. Drain.

prepare Rice: Saute The Onion And Garlic In The Olive Oil Until Onion Is Translucent. Add Rice And Saute Until Rice Is Translucent, Stirring Frequently.

prepare Final Dish: To The Rice Mixture, Add Lentils, Tomatoes, And Broth. Bring To A Boil, Lower Heat And Partially Cover. Cook For An Additional 30 Minutes Or Until Rice And Lentils Are Tender. Add Salt And Pepper To Taste.

yield: 6 Cups
