Lazy Lentils

Archaeological studies show that humans have been eating lentils for up to 13,000 years. You know why? Because lentils are great! They’re a healthy source of protein, and they’re easy to throw together in all kinds of dishes. This is a simple but warming dish that’s full of flavour.

Method

• Combine the lentils, vegetable broth, onion, garlic, jalapeño (if using), and salt in a slow cooker; mix well.
• Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. Season with salt (if using) and pepper.
