Sisters Come In All Different Shapes & Sizes: Mexican!!!

Okay, so with this whole new vegan thing going on I've been trying a lot of new recipes. Jon really enjoyed this recipe. I found it in the book I read-Never Be Fat Again, but I did tweak a few things.

So...

Ingredients:

1. Lentils

2. Garlic

3. Cumin

4. Onions

5. Tortilla

6. Taco Toppings-lettuce, tomatoes, salsa, guacamole, etc.

So I boiled my all natural 365 Green Lentils for abour 20 minutes before adding garlic, cumin, and onion. The book only calls for a TBS of each, but I added ~~a little~~ A LOT more of everything. The lentil taste was hard to overcome. I ended up putting several TBS of each into the mix. I also cheated on the no dairy rule of our diet and added some shredded cheese. I also sauteed some green peppers that I sliced up earlier in the week. I use Ezekiel tortillas and had the peppers, salsa, and lettuce set out to use as toppings. I could have eaten this without the tortilla but Jon LOVED it. As soon as he finished his first burrito-he asked for a second. It's a good feeling with your recipe is liked.

Brown rice would also be a great add in. I started making it but I had no idea REAL brown rice took 50 minutes to cook instead of 10 minutes. Oops!

NEW OUTFIT ALERT:

So I got this new outfit before I started my new job, but just didn't feel like wearing it. Tight pencil skirts always give away your belly bulge, but since I lost 7 pounds-I feel great wearing them :) Amazing how much a little weight loss can help!
