Rice Lentil Polou

Saute' in a very little liquid (of choice)1/2 medium onion until soft.
Add and stir for a minute or two:

1 cup raw brown rice
1/4 cup raw lentils
1/4 tsp. cinnamon

Add 2 1/2 cups broth of choice, tomato juice can be used, I use V-8 which
makes it very tasty.  Bring to boil, cover tightly, turn heat very low, and
simmer for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix in 1/2 cup raisins.  Mixture should still have a little liquid, if not,
add 1/4 cup.  Place in oiled or Pam sprayed baking dish.  Cover and bake for
20 to 30 minutes.  Serves 4 to 6.

This is easily adapted  for 30 servings.  Change to 3 onions, chopped, 4 cup
raw rice, 1 cup lentils, 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon.  4 cups V-8 and 4 c water or
broth. 1 1/2 cup raisins.  Bake 45 minutes.  Adapted from Laurel's Kitchen
cookbook.
