Happy May Day!

Well, we just danced around a maypole in the rain! Gotta' love this crazy weather. We had a wonderful feast afterwards and one of my friends made a killer Lentil Sloppy Joe recipe. Don't worry, I won't make you die of curiousity. The recipe is right here:

Lentil Sloppy Joes

1 1/2 cups of dry lentils (can be brown or red lentils)
3 cups of water
1/2 cup broth
1 1/2 cups diced tomatoes

1 onion
1 small or half a large bell pepper

1/4 cup ketchup
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
1/2 Tbsp. prepared mustard (like French's)
1 Tbsp. chili powder
1 1/2 Tbsp. brown sugar
salt and pepper to taste

Bring water, broth, and tomatoes to a boil and then add the lentils. Saute' onion and bell pepper in olive oil for 5-7 minutes or until soft. Add these to the lentil mixture.

Combine remaining ingredients and add to the lentils. Cook until lentils are soft.


Enjoy!
