LENTIL CASSEROLE - VEGETARIAN & VERSATILE

Lentil Casserole

This is the most incredibly versatile vegetarian casserole!

​S
erve it as a meatless alternative on taco night. Simply heat corn tortilla shells and provide a mound of chopped lettuce (I prefer iceberg for this recipe) and a pot of sour cream. Yummy, filling and healthy (includes 7 vegetables/legumes: lentils, tomatoes, celery, carrot, onion, lettuce & arguably corn!)

​It is easy to prepare, economical to stock, good on its own or as a side dish, easy to keep warm for late-comers to the table ... and freezes beautifully.
What you need:

2 c dried green lentils
2 1/2 c water
1 can diced tomatoes (16oz)
1/2 can tomato paste (7&1/2oz)
1 tbsp soy sauce
A dash of cayenne pepper
1 tsp each of: marjoram,
   sage, thyme, basil &       
   oregano
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 diced/crushed garlic clove
1 stalk celery
1 carrot
1 yellow onion

Topping:
​2 tsps parsley (chopped or dried)
grated cheddar cheese
What you do:

Mash the diced tomatoes in their juice. Chop celery, carrot and onion finely.

Combine all ingredients into a large casserole, starting with the lentils and working your way down the list. Give the concoction a good stir.

Cover tightly with foil and bake at 375° for 1 hour. Peel back the foil and see if more water needs to be added and simply pour over.
*Tip: heat the water first in the kettle so you don't risk cracking your dish with cold water.

Re-cover and cook for an additional 1 hour.

Meanwhile, grate an ample amount of cheddar cheese. Remove foil, spread cheddar cheese over top and heat for 10 minutes (or until melted).

Disclaimer: Many of the items sold are vintage or pre-loved. Quality of vintage items vary with the manufacturing methods available at the time of production. They are not made to current standards of manufacturing ... and in my opinion, that is usually a good thing! They tend to be higher quality, last longer and include more attention to detail than today's products. However, safety standards do change over time, items do deteriorate with age, and it is up to the customer to decide how they will use each product.
