Leek, Lentil & Rice Stew

Posted by Carole Koch

For 2 servings:

Cook 1 1/2 cups sliced leeks in 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil over medium heat, 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often.

Add 2 cloves minced garlic and 1/2 cup brown rice; sauté until rice looks opaque.

Add 2 cups water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Bring to a simmer over high heat, and then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 10 minutes.

Rinse and drain 1/2 cup lentils, stir into pot and cook 20 to 25 minutes until rice and lentils are tender and water is absorbed.
