oh you should try it that way! it's amazing! garlic/onions/ginger as aromatics, i add about three spoons of berbere that i get at the ethiopian shop across the street from the broadway ethiopian diamond (you're in/near chicago, iirc? it's called kukulu market) and blend at the end. deeeeeeeeeeeeeeelish.

veggie broth btw
Last night I was gonna make puy lentil stew with some nice beef sausages sliced into it but I got lazy and drank instead and then it was too late to bother. Might make some tomorrow and fridge/freeze for work.

I make mine on the simple side, without meat:
veggie stock (or chicken stock sometimes)standard brown lentilschopped yellow oniona bit of garlicsome grated carrotsome chopped celerya bay leaf or twosalt & pepper
Optional stuff: a potato, in small cubessome shredded spinach or similar greens
It tastes good.

I did make the puy lentil sausage casserole, with fresh thyme from the garden. It was tasty.

Thinking about how my cheese & chicken pasta doesn't make me feel as awesome at 3.30pm as lentils do, contemplating making another pot of them for this week.
Manda, did you tell your dentist that your teeth still hurt?

yeah, i'm going back today for the last part of the exciting root canal process, which i imagine is a filling? definitely breaking up with this guy.
in lentil news, i can't recommend parsley enough for a simple lentil soup. it adds so much green flavor, even after a few days. love it.

Of the Ronzoni brand anyway. Barilla lives on, I think.
