Stewed Lentils (Slow Cooker) #MeatFreeMonday | CaribbeanPot.com
Lentils are inexpensive versatile and make an easy main meal or side dish. Their earthy flavor pairs well with a variety of flavor profiles and vegetables. It’s hard to run out of ways to cook lentils.
These tasty lentils are packed with flavor and are slow cooked with garlic tomatoes carrots and celery then topped with shredded cheddar cheese. Using the slow cooker takes the guesswork out of cooking lentils and fills your home with a delicious aroma. Eat them as is topped with shredded cheese and herbs like parsley or maybe even a dollop of sour cream. Slow cooked lentils are also always great paired with cooked white or brown rice.
You can adapt this recipe to suit your own dietary needs. For example it’s easy to make vegetarian by using vegetable stock instead of chicken; omit the cheddar cheese (or use a vegan substitute); and it’s also a dairy-free meal.
