PREPARE:
Place lentils in a strainer and wash under cool water. Bring 3 cups of water to a boil, then add 1 cup of water. When water returns to a boil, lower to a simmer and cover for 20-30 minutes. Tip - you can cook lentils at the beginning of the week, and keep in an airtight container in your fridge. Throw lentils into your meals all week long!
