Lol thanks ally, ill remember that!
Welcome! Thanks for dropping by! Copied/paste from where I gave fran the recipe on another thread!
This is copied from slimming eats website but I tend to tweak it a bit. I make it for 2 so use half the amounts and make a shallow bake. I also chop up and add whatever veggies I've got. Have used courgette, very finely chopped butternut squash, chillies, etc and don't usually use the coriander.
Serves 4
Green - 1 HEa per serving
Extra Easy - 1 HEa per serving
Ingredients
200g of red lentils
120g of cheddar (4 HEa's)
1 red pepper, finely chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic, crushed
some fresh coriander
black pepper and salt to season
2 eggs
Frylight or Pam spray
Method
Preheat oven to 180c or 350f
Place red lentils in saucepan cover with water and cook until softened.
In the meantime, spray a frying pan with frylight or Pam spray and cook the onion, red pepper and garlic for approx 4 mins.
Once lentils are softened, drain any remaining liquid and add them to a bowl.
Add the onion, red pepper and garlic, plus some freshly chopped coriander and season with some salt and black pepper.
Add the cheddar and the eggs and mix thoroughly.
Spray a round baking tray (or this also works well in a meatloaf tin) with some Frylight or Pam, add the mixture and bake in the oven till it is golden and set. Approx 30 mins.
Cut into 4 quarters and serve with a mixed salad.
I will warn you now the mixture before being cooked looks like vomit, don't let this put you off! Its really yummy and cheap and you can add anything you have really, or just a basic onion lentil and cheesy bake. Xx
