Lentils for breakfast? Yes!

At the adult day healthcare center, they sometimes make lentil porridge for breakfast. It is green, it tastes like olive oil and lemon juice and pepper, and it is awesome.  

I tried making it once and was blazingly unsuccessful. So today, when I found the cook talking to the office manager, I asked how to make it.

- Soak the lentils the night before.
- Slow cooker all night, on low. (Or, Mary's way: Oven all night, 250-300 degrees.) May saute onions and add (this is what the office manager does).
- Add olive oil, lemon juice, black pepper, turmeric to taste. Garlic OK.
- Use 1 part lentils (Office manager holds up a large-sized coffee cup to illustrate how much lentils she uses) to 1.5- 2 parts water. If you end up with too much water, take it out of the slow cooker and boil it down on the stove.
