Instructions
Recipe Lentils

- Add 1 medium sweet potato, and tomatoes. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add tomato juice, and 2 cups veggie broth. Simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the sweet potato is tender.
- Use an immersion blender, or transfer about 3/4 sauce to a blender, and blend until mostly smooth.
- Return to saucepan and add split red lentils, and 2 cups veggie broth. Simmer with the lid on for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils are cooked. Stir frequently and add more veggie broth or water as needed.
- Mix in 1/4 cup peanut butter and heat until warmed through while stirring.
- Remove from the heat and add 1 tsp mellow miso dissolved in 1 tbsp water, 1 tbsp tamari or soy sauce, and fresh lime juice to taste. Add salt.

- Slice potatoes about 1/8 to 1/4 -inch-thick.
- Heat about 2 tbsp high-heat cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. (There should be a thin layer of oil.)
