Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 onion diced; about 1 cup
  • 2/3 cup lentils, green dried
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • taco shells for serving (use gluten free to make recipe gluten free)
  • toppings for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a medium size saucepan. Add in the onion, and sauté until just tender and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
  2. Add in the lentils, taco seasoning, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer until the lentils are tender, and the liquid is mostly absorbed—about 15-20 minutes.
  3. Spoon the lentil mixture into taco shells, and top with desired toppings.
