However, I would assume that you would need less broth that way, as they do soak up some of it while cooking. As for how much to cut--I'm clueless because I've never done it.

I love both lentils and brown rice. This looks kind of similar to a dish called mujadarrah (spelled variously), which is just lentils, brown rice and caramelized onions. Bookmarking this for sure.

It was planned for tomorrow until fish went on sale! Thank you for joining the first October Fest Carnival of Super Foods! Next week’s theme is Super Foods (which include basic things like garlic, onions, and apples). Hope to see you back!<br />Katie One of my fav slow cooker meals.

Is 300 degrees a typo? I also added an 8 oz can of tomato sauce and some shredded chicken, and the meal really was divine. Next time I think I'd cook the rice and lentils first or do the crockpot thing so I would be more certain about when dinner would be ready.

Lentils and Brown rice are both on my "use more of" b/c they're healthy list and my "use up soon" b/c I have too many bags right now. <br /><br />To increase the nutrition of dry lentils (and make them stretch even farther b/c they increase in size) you can sprout them. Just soak overnight in water, then let them hang out in a colander for a few days, rinsing them twice a day (morning and night, usually). They'll start to get little sprouts, and then you cook them up just like you normally would. Yay!
