"While compiling a cookbook of lowfat recipes in MC, I ran into this interesting Stew. Lentils, orange and tomatoes. I haven't made it yet but plan on giving it a try on.. you guessed it All Hallows Eve. Original was by Reggie D to Eat Low Fat. Source unknown."

This is one of my favorite soups. It has the most delicious flavor and is full of protein. Definitely do not leave out the orange. The flavor is not assertive but gives an undertone that compliments the carrots and tomatoes. I highly recommend this and suggest you don't change a thing!

AND that is the end of this. If the phone doesn't ring? It's me. If you are looking to ask me a question? I'm not here. I won't answer. I do not assure you that the ingredients, amounts or even the directions in any recipe under my two accounts are correct due to the bad directional pointer in the database that is causing problems with the amounts or ingredients. I will also NOT assure you they are correct when the site claims they are fixed. Use at your own risk. They will be correct on my site. End of story. Sigh..
