I need to get more iron in my diet and one way that was suggested to me was red lentils. So I found a red lentil curry recipe online, added some carrots, a potato and a little beef to satisfy the mister to the Crockpot. The good news is that the house smelled amazing when I got home. The bad news was that the curry was too acidic to really enjoy it, plus the curry kind of turned into lentil loaf. Those little red lentils will hold a surprising amount of liquid. The nice folks at TQC gave me some suggestions on how to save it, though. Next time I will double the amount of liquid and make it when I'm at home so I can stir it more often. I will also use prepared curry sauce from a jar or something like Glico or Vermont curry brands too!
