Brown Lentil Chilli

Really easy dinner to make and a great healthy substitute to a meaty chilli. 


Ingredients: 

Ok guys so my recipe is

8 Cups of Water or 8 Cups of Organic Veg Broth. I used 4 organic veg broth cubes and 8 cups of water to make my broth.
1 Red Bell Pepper Chopped
1 Medium Yellow Onion Chopped
5 Garlic Cloves Chopped
2 and 1/4 Cups of Organic Brown Lentils
4 Tsp of Organic Chilli Powder
2 Cans of Chopped Tomatoes 
A bit of Chipotle sauce ( This is optional, I used about 2 tsps)
Chopped Cilantro 

Directions:

Bring 3/4 cup broth to a simmer in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper and garlic and cook about 8 mins or until the onion and pepper are tender. Stir in chili powder and cook 1 minute stirring constantly. Add lentils, tomatoes and remaining 7 1/4 cups of broth. Bring to a boil. reduce heat to a medium-low and simmer, partially covered. 30 minutes or until lentils are almost tender. Add some Chipotle sauce (optional) Uncover and cook 10 minutes longer. Stir in Cilantro and serve.

Enjoy :)
