Lentil Tacos

Ingredients

1 onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced (or more if you are a garlic lover like me)

1 teaspoon olive oil

1 cup dried lentils

1 Tablespoon chili powder

2 teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon dried oregano

3 cups chicken or vegetable broth

1 cup salsa

Tortillas or Taco Shells

Lettuce

Tomatoes

Mangoes

Cheese

Sour Cream

Guacamole

Pico 

Any other of your favorite taco toppings

Directions:
In a large, nonstick pan, saute the onion and garlic in oil until tender. Add the lentils, chili powder, cumin and oregano and stir. Add broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes--until the lentils are tender.
Uncover and cook for 6-8 more minutes until mixture thickens. Mash lentils slightly. Stir in salsa.
Enjoy!
