Lentils – Dinner under Ten Bucks

As some of you may have noticed, I’ve been losing some steam.  I can easily live without meat, but I’m really missing my dairy and wheat.

I wanted to try something new for dinner and Meghan suggested dahl.

Suddenly, I remembered that I had a really easy recipe from my aunt and I’m going to share it with you.

One onion chopped.
Two tomatoes chopped.
One to two cloves of garlic chopped
One tsp. each of cumin, chile and turmeric.
4 ounces of red lentils rinsed
 1.5-2 cups of vegetable stock (or water).

I put all of the ingredients into my slow cooker and let it simmer until the lentils appeared swollen (about one hour). The prep time is about 10 minutes.
