Beef Lentil Skillet image

This is nutritious, flexible, and delicious! I adapted it from my trusty Mennonite Cookbook recipe, and our family loves it and always asks for more! It goes "viral" everytime I make it for a church gathering or some other food-fest! ENJOY!

Time 1h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb ground beef (you can substitute Smoked Sausage ring or Kielbasa for a change of pace)
1 cup dried lentils
1 medium onion, coursely chopped
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 cup corn (drained canned corn, or frozen, your choice)
2 -3 cups water (may need more)
2 bay leaves
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to personal preferences)

Steps:

  • In large skillet or dutch oven, brown beef and onions, and drain fat. If you choose the Smoked Sausage or Kielbasa, slice into 1/3-1/2 thick slices and brown.
  • Sort lentils and wash.
  • Add lentils and ALL remaining ingredients to meat mixture.
  • Bring to boil, cover, and turn down to simmer. Simmer 45 mins, stirring every 15 mins or so and adding water if necessary. Most all water should be absorbed with only a little "sauce" left when ready to serve. Remove bay leaves, serve with bread and salad for complete meal.
