Ingredients

1 cup lentils
3 cups water
1 cup onion, thinly sliced
3 to 4 cloves garlic chopped
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 bay leaf
3/4 cup tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 TBL oil
1 avocado
3 to 4 TBL Chipotle Cayenne Parma!, to taste

Directions

Wash lentils. Combine lentils with water in a saucepan over medium heat.
Add turmeric, bay leaf, tomatoes, and salt. When it begins to boil, reduce the heat to a simmer.

Cook until the lentils break apart and thicken slightly, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the onions, cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking and stirring until onion is very tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for two minutes.

Pour onion mixture into lentils and stir. Put into bowls, add Chipotle Cayenne Parma! and avocado.
