Recipe: Lentil Tofu Storm

Okay, I haven't tried this one--I just made it up, so I'll comment on the made product later on.

2 cups lentils
3 cups water
1 cup finely chopped onions
1 cup parmesan cheese
1 package chopped firm tofu
1 bottle dark beer

• Mix the tofu and the dark beer in a glass baking dish.
• Tightly cover with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator over night (24 hours).
• In a large pot, cook the lentils in the water on the stove, over medium heat, until just tender (about 20 minutes).
• Drain the Lentils.
• Push the tofu to one side of the baking dish.
• Pour the lentils and beer into the baking dish, beside the tofu.
• Pour the chopped onions and cheese into the other side of the baking dish.
• Thus, you will have three rows of lentils, tofu and cheese & onions.  With a spoon, stir from the outside edges in a circle, moving toward the center, so that you have a swirl.
• Coat lightly with more parmesan and freshly ground black pepper.
• Bake 400 degrees (Farenheit) for 20-30 minutes.
• Serve with Naan bread, crackers and/or tortillia chips.
