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.

Provided by Roosie

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 8h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup brown lentils
3/4 teaspoon salt
4 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1/2 cup rice
5 -6 cups homemade vegetable stock or 5 -6 cups chicken stock

Steps:

  • Place the olive oil into the bottom of the crock pot.
  • Turn the pot onto the highest setting and add the onions.
  • Allow the onions warm in the oil for 10-15 minutes.
  • Add the remaining ingredients, including the water.
  • If cooking the dish all day, reduce heat to low, otherwise leave on high setting.
  • Cover.
  • Stir the dish while in the crock- If it is dry, add a little water- If it's soup-like, remove lid for a little while, or turn heat to high setting.
  • It's tasty as a main meal or as a pilaf to accompany other meals- Cook for 8 hours on low or 4-5 on high.
  • NOTE: Start with 5 cups water or broth- That way it won't be"mushy" if you make this recipe while you're out for the entire day- You can always add more water or broth, but it's hard to"un-mush" lentils& rice!
  • Note for Vegetarian do NOT use chicken broth.
