I used this recipe as a guide and loved it. We skipped the carrots and mushrooms and step 2. The addition of bay leaf was yummy. I used canned beef broth for liquid and cooked it uncovered to let the liquid evaporate. We will make this again and try it with the veggies. Thanks Matt!

Good alternative for leftover corned beef if you like lentils. DH said it needed to be juicier. I added fresh ground pepper and summer savory.
