"Lentils and Veggies" recipe is from Betty Crocker's More Slow Cooker Recipes (Wiley, 2004). It's a simple stew-like dish of brown lentils, carrots, onion, garlic, thyme, diced tomatoes, and pepper. While it was a little flavorless straight out of the slow cooker, the flavors were markedly improved by a night in the fridge.
This a nice dish for a cold day and quite nutritious -- high fiber, low calorie, low fat, and cholesterol free.
