Lentil Casserole

Lentil and Bean Casserole

Ingredients

1 1/2 c. dry brown lentils

3 cups water

1 can Great Northern Beans, drained and rinsed

1 small sweet onion, chopped

1 green pepper, chopped

3 cloves of garlic, minced

2 tsp. curry powder

1 tsp. garam masala

1 tsp. black pepper

1 c. shredded parmesan cheese

1 egg, beaten

1 Tbsp. olive oil

Directions

In a pot, cook the lentils in the 3 cups of water until tender, about 25 minutes. Drain off extra water. While lentils are cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the garlic, green pepper, and onion and sauteé until “relaxed” and the onion is translucent. In a large bowl, mix the lentils, beans, vegetables, spices, egg and cheese together. Pour into a greased (or sprayed) casserole dish and bake at 350 for about 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted and golden.
