One Pot Lentils, Potatoes, and Veggies Magic

(serves 5, adapted from here)

Ingredients:

- 3 large leeks, chopped

- 1 large carrot, chopped

- 3 medium potatoes, chopped

- 1 red pepper, chopped

- 1 T minced garlic (jarred is fine)

- 1 T rosemary (dried is fine)

- 3 T olive oil

- salt and pepper

- 1/2 c white wine

- 1 can diced tomatoes 

- 1 tiny can tomato paste

- 2 c veggie broth (I used Better than Bouillon)

- 16 oz dried red lentils 

- 2 c asiago cheese (if you're vegan, use panko)

Instructions:

- In a large oven-safe pot or pan (I used cast-iron), combine the first 8 ingredients and saute until everything starts to get a little brown, about 5-10 minutes. Stir often and add more oil if you need it.

- Pour in the wine and deglaze the pan. Add the tomatoes (the juice too), tomato paste, broth, and the lentils and stir well. 

- Place the pan in the oven and bake at 350 F for 25-30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Sprinkle the cheese on top and broil for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese starts to brown.

Enjoy,

Tofu
