| Directions | Preheat oven to 375. Cover lentils with water, simmer until tender. Saut onions in olive oil, with paprika, and cayenne, until onions are golden. Turn off heat. Add 1 cup of cracked wheat to lentils. Be sure there is enough water to cook the wheat, which should take 5-10 minutes to cook. Taste to see, being careful not to overcook, as the mixture will be like porridge. Combine the onion-oil, and lentil/wheat mix. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add diced tomato to mixture. Stuff peppers with mixture. Place in a pan, with 1/4 inch of water, cover loosely with foil, and bake until peppers are tender. Serves 6. Can be reheated. |
