Ingredients

  • 1 cup dry lentils
  • 1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed tomato soup
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 chopped green bell pepper
  • 12 chopped onion
  • sugar substitute, to taste
  • salt
  • pepper

Method

  • Cooked lentils as directed on package.
  • When water is almost all absorbed, add tomato soup (undiluted), garlic, pepper and onion.
  • Season with sugar sweetener (I usually use 3-4 packets), salt and pepper to your taste.
  • Cook further if you want a thick chili or add a little water if you want it thinner.
  • Note, the lentils continue absorbing water after cooking, so if there are leftovers, it serves as a good casserole the next day.
