Easy Red Lentils

Prep:2minCook:8min
Red lentils are a fantastic addition to your diet. They're a great side carb source that is also high in protein and fiber. Red split lentils are just as easy to cook as rice, take a fraction of the time, and are healthier. And they're not that much more expensive too. I got a 1 lb bag for $1.50, and normally brown rice runs me $1 per lb.
