A torta is basically a sandwich on great crusty bread with savory Mexican fillings. In fact I think this could be a great food truck option. (or grilled cheese or tacos)
I love lentils! I usually make a hearty soup with carrots, celery onions and equal parts chicken stock and beef stock, and a bit of butter to offset all the healthfullness! Or I like a cold lentil salad. Cook the lentils until just tender, if you overcook them they get too mushy, fine for soup but ugly for salad. Then i take the warm, drained lentils and add Italian dressing (homemade or store bought) Crumbled crispy bacon or shredded smoked chicken, scallions, roasted red peppers, and feta cheese or whatever is available. I like it on a bed of fresh baby spinach and it's so healthy I can't stand it! Whatever veggies you have around will work.
We had chicken and rice soup and Jon topped it off with twin cronnie sandwiches! If my camera would have been charged I would have taken a pic for the maiden recipe post. Probably better that way, so now I will beg the question what's for tomorrows dinner? I better make it blog worthy!
