Lentils with Brown Rice

Ingredients:

3 cups Vegetable or Chicken broth
3/4 cups lentils
1/2 cup brown rice
1 small onion, chopped
1-2 cloves garlic, minced (or 1/4 tsp. garlic powder)
1 tsp. Italian seasoning (or a mix of oregano, rosemary, thyme, basil, and marjoram)
1/4 tsp. cumin (optional)
1/8 tsp. cayenne powder (optional)

Shredded cheddar, crumbled feta cheese, or sour cream to top (optional)

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350ºF.
In a small skillet, saute onions and garlic, until onions are translucent. 
In a medium to large casserole dish, mix all ingredients, including the onions and garlic. Cover the dish. If you don't have a lid, cover with aluminum foil. Place in preheated oven and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed by the rice and lentils.
Remove from oven, serve in individual bowls. Top with your choice of cheese or sour cream.

Makes 4-6 servings.
