Curried Lentils a la Crock Pot

1/2 sweet potato finely diced
1 onion
1 clove garlic
4 diced tomatoes
3 or 4 cups stock
1 bag lentils (we're using pretty orange colored ones)
1 Table Spoon Curry Powder (unless you know how to curry things from scratch like Matt does)
salt, pepper
low for 3 or 4 hours, stirred occasionally because mine gets really hot and burns, even on low, if I'm not carefully
Sometimes I add lots of vegetables (green pepper, carrots, celery, anything) but not tonight because I don't want to freak everyone out.

thanks for posting that, it looks good!

It does look good. Those little red lentils dissolve fast - I think that might be why it has a tendency to burn.

Happy Easter to you.

Sent recipe recipe to my wife who graciously made it for dinner that very night. (I very sneakily had bought the ingredients and made the stock the night before.) I liked it a lot. The rest of of my family - not so much. Alas, there is no accounting for taste.
