Lentil tacos with lime crema

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Cover the lentils with at least an inch of water in a pot, put them on high heat and boil them until tender — about 15 minutes, depending on the type and how firm you like them. Drain them when they're done.

Step 2

If you have real crema or crème fraîche, mix it with the juice of the lime. If you have sour cream, mix in the lime and enough water to give you a saucy texture. Season with a little salt.

Step 3

Chop up the onion and the pepper. If using fresh corn, shave off the kernels. Put some oil in a big pan on medium heat and cook the onion and peppers until almost as soft as you want them, 5-10 minutes. Put in the corn, canned chilies and drained lentils.

Step 4

Stir in the taco seasoning, and any additional water if it doesn't look saucy enough. Taste for seasoning — it might need additional salt.

Step 5

Warm the tortillas, fill with the lentil mixture, and top with the crema (plus maybe hot sauce and/or cilantro).
