Have made this for years. Sometimes I add taco seasoning instead of Italian. and serve over red beans. Family loves this over cornbread also. have used for burritos and enchiladas. When I use Italian season ing serve with a tossed salad.

thanks for the reminder of a good dinner

Sounds great! I’m always looking for new ways to cook lentils.

I do have a question, though. What is in “Italian seasoning”? I don’t own any and have never used it. I use basil and oregano in Italian dishes…is that basically what it is, or is there something more to it?

Thanks!

I had the same problem with the lentils and the rice being too crunchy after 1 hr 10m. So I upped the temp to 350 for about another 30m. I made sure the lentils and rice were cooked, and the broth was no longer on top of the food. The cheese didn’t need 20m now that I had made the oven warmer. But it was delicious! I made it with broccoli, so good! I have tortillas and salsa for the leftovers (quesidillas)

Can white rice be used instead of brown rice? If so, how much and how would the cooking time change?

Wow, this was so good, Made it in the crock pot yesterday, then was going to have leftovers today, but it was gone, so I made another batch.

Ok, HUGE QUESTION here, Are the lentils already cooked or do you have some sort of canned lentils? The only lentils I have ever seen were in a bag like dried beans. Is that what you used? Or since I have bagged lentils do I need to cook them first before I do this recipe?
