Lentils and Rice Casserole
"This recipe got its start from ladypit's Brown Rice and Lentil Casserole #74629. After weeks of tinkering, I adapted it so much that it really became something totally different. LOL My family, especially my 13 month old, really love this! Wholesome, filling and super easy to throw together! I make this all the time. The leftovers are great, too."

40 minutes and it was cooked. I used white long grain rice. I should have greased the baking dish cause it stuck to it. Maybe there was not enough liquid. I used red lentils. This has a nice taste and it's kind of healthy. Thanks Hottiecj :) Made for PAC Fall 2009 -
This was pretty good. Mine took a lot more broth and water and a lot longer...but it was yummy! -
This was great! I would have given 5 stars, but the rice wasn't quite done and I had to cook an additional 15 minutes or so. Aside from that, I realized I didn't have beef broth, so I used chicken instead, but followed the rest of the recipe exactly. This was really good. Even my kids ate it! Fast, healthy and cheap! Thanks hottiecj! We'll definitely be making this again! -
Tastes great! Very easy to make. I added some ground beef to make it a main course. -
I thought this was pretty good for rice and beans. It was the first time I ever made rice and beans so I can't really compare it to anything else.

All my recipes are simple, cheap, quick and delicious. Having only one income, you learn to make do! :) I'm 30 and a Mom to our 4 boys. My DH works for National Serv-All picking up recycle in a neighboring county. I refuse to make a dish that costs more than $5.00 to make. Most of the cooking shows on TV crack me up.-I think I'll leave the $30.00 veal lasagna or braised rack of lamb in wine sauce to people without kids!lol We're just down-home folks that love down-home cookin'! lol Hope you love making and eating my recipes as much as we do!
