I posted a recipe that got me featured in a local Chicago paper…but I’ve got another one on my blog today that I love just as much: Polenta e Fagioli. You’re 100% right, if more people ate more beans, we’d have an awful lot less debt – AND we’d be healthier! A pound of beans is about $2 and has about 12 servings!

Honey Baked Lentils rock my world! I can mix up this recipe in 5 minutes (using affordable, shelf-stable ingredients), stick it in the oven for an hour or so, go do something else, and then dinner is done! It goes really well with sweet potatoes or winter squash, which can bake along with it.

I’m looking forward to browsing the other recipes. Thanks for hosting this!

Lentil Loaf is my favorite!

EASY LENTIL LOAF
From “The New Farm Vegetarian Cookbook”.

Cook 1 1/2 C of rinsed lentils in 3 1/2 C of water until tender.
Partially mash lentils and mix with 2 medium onions that have been sauted in a little water. Add to the onions and lentils:

2 C cooked rice
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 C catsup or barbecue sauce
1 tsp sage
1/2 tsp marjoram

Press into a sprayed loaf pan and spread catsup or barbecue sauce over the top.
Bake for 1 hour.

I linked up to an older recipe, too! It is an awesome stew in a jar that is perfect for keeping your pantry stocked with “convenience” food. It cooks fairly fast, too!
