Servings 4

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp Chili powder

• 1/2 tsp Crushed red pepper

• 2 tsp Cumin

• 1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil

• 1 tbsp Garlic (crushed)

• 1 cup Lentils, raw (rinsed)

• 1 tsp Oregano, dried

• 2 tbsp Paprika

• 1 cup Salsa, ready-to-serve

• 1/4 tsp Sea salt

• 3 1/2 cup Water

• 1/2 large Yellow onion (diced)

Instructions

1. Place olive oil in a skillet on medium heat.

2. Sauté the garlic and onion until soft and translucent. Add lentils and seasonings, and stir well. Add the water and bring to a boil. Reduce to medium heat and occasionally stir for 25-30 minutes, until lentils are tender and slightly soft (all of the water should be absorbed, and should not be mushy).

3. Stir in the salsa and heat for another 3-4 minutes.

4. Serve over a bed of lettuce for a taco salad or with whole grain tortillas.

Enjoy!
