Spiced Lentil Tacos

  

Ingredients

Makes 4 servings

  1 tablespoon olive oil

  1 cup finely chopped onion

  1 clove garlic, chopped

  1/2 teaspoon salt

  1 cup dried brown lentils, rinsed

  1 package (2.25 ounce) taco seasoning

  2 1/2 cups vegetable broth

  1/2 cup fat-free sour cream

  1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce, finely chopped (use half for less heat)

  2 teaspoons adobo sauce

  8 taco shells

  1 1/4 cups shredded lettuce

  1 cup chopped tomato

  1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat (2 percent) cheddar

  Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook onion, garlic and salt until onion begins to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add lentils and taco seasoning. Cook until spices are fragrant and lentils are dry, about 1 minute. Add broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until lentils are tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Mix sour cream, chile and adobo sauce in a bowl. Uncover lentils and cook until mixture thickens, 6 to 8 minutes. Mash with a rubber spatula. Spoon 1/4 cup lentil mixture into each taco shell. Top with 2 heaping teaspoons sour cream mixture, lettuce, tomato and cheese.
