"This is my family's take on a wonderful comfort food."

Ingredients: pepper, cumin, garlic...

"From: "The Bean Cookbook" by Norma S. Upson. When I try it I will probably double the herbs. *Use vegetable broth to make this Vegetarian. You may try this with any kind of cheese you like."

Ingredients: dried basil, dried oregano...

"Although a vegetarian dish, this gets eaten with reckless abandon by carnivores.
it sounds way too healthy (and it is) but dang! it is GOOD. try it. give about 45 minutes from start to finish.
If you don't have cooked brown rice lying around, start that first and foremost.

Ingredients: pepper, ground cumin...

"This is a recipe from Cooking Light. It doesn't say what kind of lentils to use, but from the picture, I'd say brown, or puy."

Ingredients: curry powder, dried lentils...

Ingredients: cinnamon, crushed tomatoes...

"I found this recipe ages ago as a base for a vegetable stew. I have yet to get to the stew part. These two ingredients make a complete protein and I find it very satisfying. For breakfast, I love it heated with a bit of Splenda Brown Sugar, cinnamon, a dash of cayenne and a touch of butter."

Ingredients: green lentils, olive oil, salt...

"Not lovely to look at, but lovely to eat. What you get is sort of a lightly spiced lentil and al dente rice mush, which is nevertheless quite tasty.

Ingredients: coriander, cumin...

Ingredients: cooking spray, dried lentils...

"Here is a delicious salad containing lentils, wheat berries, barley, and brown rice in a pesto-like sauce. It can serve as a main dish or a side dish, and would be perfect for a potluck. My guests at dinner parties often ask for the recipe. The recipe was adapted from Michael McLaughlin's "Cooking for the Weekend" and was published..."

Ingredients: sherry wine vinegar, fresh ground black pepper...

"This is a quick and easy pilaf with my favorite spice--cardamom! If you don't have cardamom on hand, you can omit it--the pilaf is still delicious without it. I improvised it one evening when I was short of canned chicken broth and time. I like the recipe because it combines two of my favorite rices with lentils. The lentils add protein. The dish..."

Ingredients: fresh ground pepper, ground cardamom...

"A quick and nutritious side dish that goes especially well with grilled food. The cooking time is cut down by using a quick-cooking brown rice, but do not use "instant" rice without adjusting the cooking time at the end."

Ingredients: fresh ground black pepper, brown lentils...

"I haven't tried this yet but it's on the menu for this week. I got this one off the message boards also from WW.com. It looks like a great side dish to just about any meat or even just eaten by itself for a lunch."
