Description

This hearty, frugal, vegan main dish has a smoky flavor that may remind you of hot dogs. Try mixing in 1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar to give it more zing–or top each portion with ketchup, mustard, relish, or whatever you’d like!


Ingredients

UnitsScale
  • 1 c. dry green or brown lentils
  • 2 Tbs. lemon juice
  • 2 c. diced potato (about 2 or 3 potatoes, in approximately 1/4" cubes)
  • 1 1/2 c. water
  • 4 Tbs. olive oil (use the code STEWARDSHIP for 10% off at that site!)
  • 1 tsp. smoked paprika
  • 1 Tbs. dried parsley
  • 1 tsp. Real Salt (Use the code kitchenstewardship for 15% off of your first purchase)
  • 1 tsp. granulated garlic or garlic powder
  • 2 Tbs. dried onion flakes
  • 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Pre-soak lentils in lemon juice, plus enough water to cover. Soak at room temperature for 12-24 hours, or use boiling water and soak for 15 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  3. Wash, trim, and dice potatoes.
  4. Put water, oil, and seasonings into a 2-quart casserole dish, and mix thoroughly with a whisk or fork.
  5. Drain and rinse lentils. Mix them and the potatoes into the casserole.
  6. Bake, covered, 1 hour, or until all liquid is absorbed.
