Red Lentil Quinoa Creation with Slow Cooker



Ok, First I rarely measure things so these are all estimates and I advise a season to taste method as well. 


Ingredients
  • About 1 cup of Red Lentils
  • 1/4 cup of Quinoa
  • 1/2 cup of frozen edamame 
  • Chopped Scallions
  • 1/2 cup of Cashews
  • 1 Tablespoon Tumeric
  • 1/2 Tablespoon Cumin
  • About 2 cups of water
  • Salt n Pepper to Taste
Directions
  • Mix water, red lentils, quinoa, scallions, cashews, tarragon into slow cooker. Cook on high for about 2 hours
  • Depending on mixture (it should be heading towards the creamy side) - you may need to add water. I suggest 1/2 cup at a time
  • Add frozen edamame and cook on low for another 2 hours. 
  • Stir occasionally to check consistency
Additional Comments
  • If needed you can add nutritional yeast to add B12
  • This mixture can be served over rice, made as a spread for wrap sandwiches, or just eat it as is.
