wheat and lentil recipes wanted

[swampguy]

At a local Lebanese Restaurant they serve up a wheat and lentil dish that is very tasty. I have never cooked with wheat so this should be fund. Does anyone have a recipe? Thank You, Tim

I think what you are eating is mjaddara/moudajara, which is usually topped with cooked onions. It is also sometimes made with rice.
