"I love this recipe, and made it occasionally when my children were
youngsters. My daughter, now grown, often takes it as a pot luck dish.
Instead of the slow oven process, I mix ingredients and simmer on the
stovetop. When the lentils and rice (I'm using cracked wheat tonight)
are done, I fold in half of the cheese and slide into a casserole.
Then I top it with the rest of the cheese and broil in the oven. I also like to
add carrot pieces and chicken to make it more of a one-dish meal, but still
serve it with a nice green salad."

My first time trying lentils. Simple to prepare. Cooked for a bit over 2 hrs. Added additional onions and spices, used fresh garlic. My kids loved it. Will tweak the spices some more.

It was tasty, but took more work than your average rice recipe .

Delicious! This will be made very often here! I thought the flavor combination was excellent.

This dish was easy to make and it would be great as a main course if it had a stronger flavor. As it is, though, it is an excellent side dish.

This was delicious! I used percorino Romano grated cheese- It just took longer to cook than I thought.

This dish was delicious. It was easy to prepare and delivered on taste. We ate it as a main dish with bread and salad, but this would make a great side dish served with chicken.

Nice simple and complete dish that everyone enjoyed.
Mix, and almost-forget... perfect for busy days: preparation and cleanup is about 30mins... then it requires minimal attention.
definitely something i will make on a regular basis.

This is a recipe that my mother made when I was growing up. I loved it so much that I actually had her make it for my birthday dinner one year. I make it now for my family and it's one of my 8 year old son's favorites as well. It's quite simple to put together. One just needs to remember to start it about 2 hours or so before dinner time as it takes a while in the oven.
