Lentil Ragout
I call this dish Lentil Ragout as it features a thick and rich mélange of lentils, vegetables and sausage. It’s brightly seasoned with sundried tomato pesto and holds up beautifully as a single dish meal.
This meal will take about an hour to assemble and cook and it will be worth it. The bonus is that the leftovers will continue to please.
