Directions
Lentil Chili, This is a lower fat alternative to chili. It is nicely seasoned, tastes great on a cold winter day and freezes well. This makes a delicious meal served with cornbread or crusty rolls. As this makes quite a bit, I usually put it into 2-quart containers, cool and freeze. The night before I am going to serve it, I put it in the refrigerator and allow it to defrost. Then heat and enjoy!, Will definitely be in my “Best of 2011” Cookbook! Easy to make and lots of bold flavor. The only change I made was to add in some red wine :- The leftovers are just as good or better. I buy epazote at Penzey’s and thought 2 tsp. was plenty.
