How funny, I almost didn’t post it because I saw it on your menu……but when I did a search, I didn’t see the recipe on your site yet, haha :)

And how different, but yet the same our recipes are. It’s pretty easy to play around with, eh?

How did it taste with the cinnamon instead of the ginger? I love the ginger taste to it!

Love your concept!
See my post on “the food of the poor,” a wonderful lentil, rice, and onion dish. Sounds like nothing, but is fabulous.

I entered the giveaway. This sounds yummy. Macaroni Grill is good.

I have a question…..exactly what kind of lentils should be used or does it matter? I have some split red lentils, like the shape of split pea lentils….but red. Are those the ones you used or whole lentils?? Thanks! spanthin@yahoo.com

Re: gluten free

Thought of you as soon as I saw this article in the paper this morning.

Good recipe. All of the water did not boil out so I should have drained the lentils because mine was way too soupy, but it was good. I also sauteed the onions. I wonder if the already cooked bacon pieces would be just as inexpensive? Would be easier.

I made this tonight, it was good, as another person commented, drain the lentils after you cool them but before you add the onion and spice mix or it will come out too soupy. If it is soupy, just use a slotted spoon to serve :) Flavor was good, it was a satisfying meal without being too heavy. I’ll definitely make it again.

Interesting! I have (and love!!!) a recipe by this name that was very different even in the original version I saw online, and now I’ve tweaked it. Click my name to see it. Mine is much simpler; you just mix all the ingredients and stick it in the oven. I haven’t worked out the cost, but all the ingredients are cheap and shelf-stable, so it’s our reliable back-up food when we don’t have fresh stuff on hand.
