This is an adaptation of a Wine Enthusiast recipe that I made on my recent Florida Trail section hike. My appetite is often blunted on my first night out, but this was good enough to overcome that little issue.
This looks wonderfully tasty and satisfying. I have made similar lentil based stews and soups for my backpacking trips. Usually I use red lentils because they take much less time to cook and rehydrate.
This looks great. Definitely saving this recipe. What is the volume of lentils used? 3 to 4 cups, or 3/4ths of a cup? I assume the former, but not sure. Thanks for posting!
