Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup baby carrots (chopped)
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • 4 chicken sausages (I used Applegate Farms Chicken Maple Breakfast Sausage)
  • 32 ounces chicken broth
  • 1 cup green lentils
  • 1 large sweet potato (peeled and diced)

Instruction

  • Saute onions, carrots and garlic in olive oil, over medium heat until softened.
  • Add sausage, and cook, browning on all sides. Once the sauce is cooked, remove from the pot and slice. Then add the sausage pieces back to the pot.
  • Pour in broth, one cup water and scrape up brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Add lentils and sweet potatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cover. Cook on low for 30-40 minutes until lentils and sweet potatoes are tender. Check the liquid level - if it gets too low, add a 1/2 cup of water.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy with gluten free crackers or bread and butter.
