RED LENTIL CHICKEN STEW
Found this whilst trawling the internet for something to use up our spare lentils. We initially doubled the recipe for all ingredients except the chicken. This allowed us two whole meals with the chicken and enough to freeze 5 portions of the lentils to use as sides for other dishes.

RED LENTIL AND VEGETABLE STEW
Wonderful stew, can be a vegetarian meal on its own. Or you can add some diced or shredded smoked duck, if you like meat. The red lentils break down, and cause this to be like a really rich soup. If you need to stretch this out, you can serve it over white rice, to do a sort of "beans and rice" thing.

HEARTY RED LENTIL STEW
