dice one stalk of celery

Mince 2 gloves of garlic.

Put in a pan with about a tbs of olive oil....let it all sweat out till soft and nearly translucent....

Add 3/4c dry lentils

a pinch of celtic sea salt

a pinch and a half of his spice ( I will post the recipe for that tomorrow...its AWESOME)

enough water to just cover....simmer till lentils are soft

he also put in some organic taco seasoning... I thought that would give it a nice chili taste....

I also thought adding some nice diced tomatoes would be a nice touch...again add to the chiliness...perhaps some diced carrot...zucchini...garbanzo beans for a little mix.....healthy chili mmmmm

How long do you let that cook for? Looks good. Meat eaters can add some dried sausage like linguica or chorizo chopped up.

Or bacon.

My life has a bacon theme running through it at the moment.
