I’ve missed eating pizza since surgery. I did, a few times, but it only went well if I ate take-away pizza from one of those pizza places, not the kind I can buy in the supermarket.

Best pizza I ever had.

Ingredients:
Directions:
Cook the lentils and mix together. Simmer with tomatoes and spices for about 45 minutes.
If needed drain excess liquid, and serve with grated cheese on top.
(Serves 4)
Note: I used a can of Bonduelle (brown) Lentils, dried red lentils and Heinz Tomatoes chopped, with herbs, in juice.
