Chef Jim Gray’s Lentil Chili
Chef Jim Gray says:
I like my chili spicy and this recipe calls for hot Mexican-style chili powder, which also contains cumin and other dried herbs. But because I like flavorful heat, sometimes I’ll even add up to four whole chipotle peppers, lending their smoky taste to my chili (I remove the chipotles before finishing the dish).
Please note, too, that as a devotee of Texas-style chili, I do not use beans. However, since this is truly a vegetarian dish and, shudder, a vegan one, too, you could add any style beans you wanted.

Lentil Plantain Bites with Timeless Pardina Lentil Salsa
In parts of Latin America and in most of the Caribbean Islands, plantains are a staple of our daily diet.
In this recipe, the ripe plantain serves as a binding agent to the lentils eliminating any type of flours. The lentils, eggs and the cheese add protein and bring a savory taste to the dish.
Serve the bites as an accompaniment to your main dish, or like we do it at home, for breakfast with a friend egg, “a caballo,” or on horseback.
Enjoy!
