This taco filling is a healthier alternative to the meat version. I found this recipe on a “runners” message board where the posters were raving how much this tasted as good as a meat filling. I actually like it better than the fillings made with ground beef. It tastes great in taco shells on taco salads and anywhere you’d normally use a meat taco filling. Ingredients:
1 cup chopped onion |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 teaspoon canola oil |
1 cup dry lentils, rinsed |
1 tablespoon chili powder |
2 teaspoons ground cumin |
1 teaspoon oregano |
14 ounces water |
2 vegetable bouillon cubes |
1 cup salsa |
Directions:
1. Put everything in the crock pot and cook on high for 8-12 hours, stirring occasionally and adding water as needed.
2. use as you would a meat taco filling.
