Inspiration from www.lentils.org

Ingredients

1 c. lentils

2-3 c. water

1 red pepper

1 yellow onion

3 T. cilantro

1/2 lime

1 sweet potato

1 t. coconut oil

1 egg 

Salt & pepper to taste

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Rinse lentils, and remove any debris. 
3. Prepare lentils in 2 c. water by bringing to a rapid boil, then reducing heat to low and simmering for 20-30 minutes.  Make sure lentils remain covered in water by adding more as needed.
4. Peel and cut sweet potato into rounds. Bake for 10 minutes. 
5. Meanwhile, mince red pepper and onion.
6. Chop cilantro.
7. Place 1 t. of coconut oil in skillet. Allow to warm on medium heat. Turn heat to low. Crack in egg. Cook until white is solid, and yellow is solid, but not hard.  Flip carefully and continue to cook for 30 seconds - 1 minute. Remove from heat.
8. Remove lentils from heat. Stir in red pepper, onion, cilantro, and the juice and zest of lime. 
9. Plate by starting with a base of sweet potato, topped with smashed avocado, and the lentil mix. Top with egg. Sprinkle with salt and pepper as desired. 

That's really what everyone scrolls all the way through to get anyway, right??  If you make this, I'd love feedback on what you liked, didn't like, what you did differently, etc.
