This was absolutely delicious. I made a gravy with the broth, and it was the richest pork gravy I've ever tasted. Will definitely make again--good enough for any dinner party!

OK, I took great liberties with this recipe because I didn't feel like going to the store, and it turned out to be ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! Instead of the beef broth and onions, I used a can of French onion soup and a can of water, and instead of the tomato sauce, I added a can of "Soup At Hand" (microwavable ready-to-eat) classic tomato soup. I also added a teaspoon of fennel seeds to the standard Italian seasonings and some red pepper flakes for a little spiciness. I also chopped up about 1/2 a cup each of celery and carrots and added it into the mix. The result was amazing--a rich, thick lentil soup with more flavor than most restaurant soups!

This recipe was delicious, but I'm not sure under what circumstances it could be done in 30 minutes in a 350 degree oven! I baked mine for about an hour at 350 and then had to boost it up to 400 for the next 20 minutes, and it still never browned. And, yes, my oven was working, I had just made a lasagna not an hour before.
