    Diana’s Egyptian Lentils & Rice, Easy. Healthy. Vegan. Crockpot. Yummy. How can you *not* want to make this? Credit goes to “Diana in Wisconsin” of the Simple Living Discussion Forums. The amount of servings depends on whether you’re making this as a main dish or a side., You don’t use rice you use orzo, pasta that looks like rice. you only cook the lentils for a long time add the pasta about 40 minutes before its done. Grew up on this dish and it still is a personal favorite, Great start! It cooked perfectly, and the texture was awesome, but it needed tons more flavor and spice! I’d make it again, but with some seasoning modifications. Great start to a comforting, filling vegan favorite.
