Michelle and I go swimming at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday and Thursday evening. By the time I arrive home I’m too hungry to think, so I try to make something ahead of time, which heats up easily and is high in protein and big in taste.   This recipe for sausage lentil casserole from Towards Sustainability certainly fits the bill.
Julie’s recipe was prepared in a crock pot but it adapted easily to stove top cooking. Instead of dry lentils, I substituted 1/2 can of drained lentils. I cooked the casserole for Sunday lunch, tonight I added cheese tortellini for extra protein.  You could eliminate the sausage for a vegetarian friendly dish.
