One thing I love about RV life is lots of time for cooking. I didn’t cook much in Thailand because, well, Thai food!
Anyway we cook a lot while road tripping. The kitchen in Winnie is small but it has everything I need. From time to time I thought I’d start sharing some of my recipes with you.
It’s cold here and so I thought today was the perfect day for my Lentil Chilli. Here’s what you need and what to do:
- 1 white or yellow onion
- 2 carrots
- 1 green or red bell pepper
- 1 pasilla chilli
- 2 zucchini or chayote squash
- 2 large ripe tomatoes
- Olive oil for sauteing
- pound bag any color lentils
- Chilli seasoning (garlic powder, cumin, chilli powder, black pepper, salt, cayenne pepper)
- Grated jack or cheddar cheese
- Fritos
Cut all veggies into chunks and saute in the olive oil until tender.
Add lentils and cover with water.
Cook on medium heat until lentils are tender (about 2 hours).
Add seasonings to taste.
Serve topped with grated cheese and Fritos.
Perfect for a chilly day in Baja California! Healthy and vegetarian too!
