I made this a lot when I lived in France All it takes is to simmer some basic ingredients. It goes well with bread and wine You can also serve it with brown rice.You can also use panchetta or other cured meat instead of bacon (if it's quite salty, adjust the amount of salt.) I recommend using chopped block bacon instead of sliced... it gives a great texture! The lentils will become tender if stewed well. This stew is very healthy. Recipe by nene4

I was hungry for some stew, so I threw this together

Easy recipe which is inexpensive to make. Great for the budget conscious who don't want to compromise on flavour.

Being a cook is being an artist —You can mix ingredients in your fridge or pantry and get creative results! I had some chickpea cans I wanted to use and I decided to make this vegetarian strew which turned out delicious ! I used vegetables I had in my fridge and you can too! You can substitute the green peppers for red/orange/ yellow or add any vegetables you already have like celery or carrots. The important thing is that you make it with love and you get creative while doing it.

The smells of this cooked stew reminds me of my mothers cooking.#CA2025

Finished product. :)

This recipe is from Hubby's paternal 'Nana' (grandmother). We spoke on the phone twice before Hubby and I were wed and off to Germany. She was pure Irish, lilting accent and all. She gave me this recipe on our second phone call. I was so grateful and asked what I could give her. Her answer, a great-granddaughter! All the great-grandkids were boys and she longed for a girl. Sadly she passed away while we were in Germany... and sadder still we only have a son. I wish we could have met... I bet she would have had endless stories to tell! This has become our traditional Samhain dinner and a remembrance of Nana. This recipe is very different from others, which have carrots and potatoes. I asked Nana about the missing root veggies and she stated that it is meant to be served with Colcannon, a mashed potato and cabbage or kale dish, so didn't need them.
