EASY LENTIL TACOS

Serve with your favorite taco fillings. Delicious is you use lettuce wraps instead of tortilla wraps.

Provided by Stormy Nights in Ca

Categories     Low Cholesterol

Time 1h5m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 cup dry green lentils
3/4 cup brown rice
4 cups beef broth
4 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients into a medium pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower heat to a medium-low heat and cook covered for approx 50 minutes stirring after 25 minutes Let stand 15 minutes. Rice and lentils should be tender.
  • What I like to do is put pot back on burner for a few minutes after it has sat and kind of mash lentils into the rice. This gives it a creamier texture. This can also be done when you are ready to reheat at a later time. Just reheat in pan and lentils will mash as you stir.
