Fast and easy for busy nights. We added more of the veggies, onion and Cajun seasoning and it was a big hit!

This was good but not really great. If I make it again I may tweak it a bit.

This is the first time I have ever eaten lentils and they are really good! I did add a little parmesan and salsa to my bowl to add some flavor and I also used rotel as other people did! A great healthy soup!

I made this for the first time last night and loved it! I made a few changes...I didn't have celery, so I doubled the carrots. I also added half of a chopped onion, used hot sausage, a chopped jalapeno and a can of diced tomatoes with chilies for the perfect amount of kick. Super easy and economical! I think this stew may have become a staple.

I used chili ready tomatoes, added oregano, basil, chili powder, minced garlic,bay leaves, and red pepper flakes. It was delish!!! This will be made again in our house!

This was very tasty--but I, like others, added some stuff I think really helped boost the flavor. I started with sauteeing a whole onion, 3 carrots and some celery, about 3 cloves garlic. Then added the lentils, a little thyme, and used veggie broth and water. Added in Rotel tomatoes close to the end. I did mine in the stovetop and it took less than 40 minutes. I also used soy chorizo as the 'sausage'. It was excellent. Served mine over brown rice. Really really tasty.

Wish I could give 3.5 stars. Cooked it as printed. Should have used a large size crockpot, it lifted the lid on my regular one after four hours. Also recommend using high grade of polish sausage for better results. Like the flavor and will try it again.

Nice basic recipe that's easy to put together. Will definitely make this again. I added onion and garlic based on other reviews (though probably would have added them anyway as we love onion and put it in almost everything) and used turkey kielbasa. The beef broth and kielbasa season it perfectly that it doesn't need any additional salt. My picky family member who doesn't like spice loved it and I found it quite good as well, though would maybe sprinkle a couple drops of hot sauce or some Aleppo pepper flakes in my own portion. Three hours on high in my crock didn't seem to cut it though and I had to cook it for about five.

I changed a few things- used sirloin tip, added 3 stalks celery, 3 chopped carrots, half a red onion, and various spices. Next time- remember to add garlic, and some hot sauce. Added tomatoes with 2 hours left to cook, took 6 hours total on high (slow cooker)
