Very yummy. Added 1/2 large onion and 1 clove garlic (minced). Tasted even better the 2nd and 3rd days. Will definitely make this again

It's going to sound crazy, but my family doesn't really love kielbasa or brats, so I just used ground sausage. I browned it in the skillet and added it to the lentils like you would add ground beef to chili. It was still awesome! Great recipe!

I left out the celery because I didn't have any and used chicken broth instead of beef. I also used turkey sausage and added in 2 garlic cloves and about 1/2 c diced onions. I cooked it on low for 7 hours and then added a can of Rotel for the last 30 minutes. It was pretty good. Will make again.

As others have mentioned, the cook time is off. After three hours on high, lentils were still crunchy. Had to cook it for another hour and a half at least. Two pounds of sausage is also a little excessive. I used one pound and even that was a little much. It made the stew greasier than it needed to be. Lentils are plenty hearty on their own and very high in protein. I doesn't need all that sausage. It just gets soggy and spongy after four and a half hours on high anyway. You could use all the same ingredients and cook this recipe on the stove in twenty minutes. I'd fry the sausage in a skillet first, then saute the carrot and celery in the sausage-greased pan along with some onion and garlic, and add all that into the pot with the other remaining ingredients. It would be so much faster.

Very delicious! Because everyone else said it needed a little something due to lack of spices, I added a diced jalapeño. I guess that did the trick, because I think it's perfect!

This did not turn out well at all. I couldn't stand the taste of it, to be honest, although my boyfriend seemed to like it. I had to cut back on the water, because my crock pot was almost to the top as it was. So therefore the lentils came out hard and not soft. It basically had no flavour (and I even added my own seasonsing!). Probably will not make again.

Wow so much flavour. SLow cooking is the way to go with this kind of dish. It was a great meal for my house full of hungry hockey fans. I followed another reviewers tip about adding acidic foods like tomatos during the last half an hour and every thing ended up great. Served it with some crusty bread and lots of beer.....it was a hit.

Was expecting a thick lentil soup but it wasn't and that was fine with us. It was tasty and filling anyways.Cooked split dhal lentils for 6 hours with extra celery and carrots.Also used only 1 1/2 lbs of sausage.

This was really good!! I used the other reviews suggestions and added a can of tomatoes with green chilies, for a kick, also added a whole onion chopped. This had the perfect spices to it! also added some garlic salt! This makes a lot of stew so I am able to freeze half of it and give some to my parents. This is really filling! I served this over some hot cornbread and wow! So amazing! I used a 16 oz bag of brown lentils that it called for but man there was a bunch of lentils! I might use only half next time!

we loved this recipe!! I browned the sausage in a frying pan w/ a half an onion (chopped)before adding it to the rest of the ingrediants. I also added 1 beef bouillon cube and a 1/2 teaspoon of a garlic herb seasoning mix that came w/ my bag of lentils. Turned out excellent, even the kids (4 & 3) loved it! I am making it again tonight (I made it for the first time about a week and a half ago) and the whole house smells delicious right now!

Found this to be a bit bland and boring. Added a little curry powder & chilli to spice it up a bit. Had no problems with the lentils cooking through.

Love it! I did replace the water with more broth. I also doubled the carrots and celery and added a large onion in chunks, and 2 tsp of minced garlic. Instead of kielbasa, I used Spanish Chorizo. I used small brown lentils, and cooked it on low for 7 hours. Turned out great, all my picky boys loved it! You have got to try it! YUMMY!

So honestly, this recipe was okay the night I made it, but was really good the following day. I will admit it doesn't look pretty, but I don't have kids to worry about. This is a good tasting recipe, especially if you find a good sausage. I used a Jimmy Dean sage sausage, and it had a good flavor. I have just started using my slow cooker, and used a previous suggestion of cooking it on low for 10 hours. Well things were mushy (but still tasted good), I probably would have cooked it on low for 7 hours.

This was a tremendous disappointment. Virtually inedible. The lentils were not fully cooked even after 7 hours in the crock pot. And the taste was very blah. Will not make it again.
