LENTIL STEW WITH ITALIAN TURKEY SAUSAGE
I remember having a delicious lentil stew at an ethnic night hosted by my preschool when I was four. I loved it but my mom, while an accomplished cook, didn't like lentils and wouldn't make them. Thirty years later I decided to experiment with them and this was the result of my first try. It is very flavorful and makes a hearty supper for a cold night!

Steps:
- Combine 2 cups broth, onion, and celery in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until softened, about 10 minutes.
- At the same time, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry sausage links in the hot skillet. Pierce casings with a fork to allow juices to run out and cook in the bottom of the pan. Cook until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a plate to cool. Slice into thin slices.
- Deglaze the skillet with about 1/4 cup chicken broth. Add the pan drippings to the saucepan, along with any remaining chicken broth, lentils, tomato sauce, and pepper. Bring to a simmer.
- Reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until lentils are tender, 25 to 30 minutes. If more liquid is needed, add water in small increments.
- Add sliced sausage, heat through, and serve.

TURKEY LENTIL STEW
A very hearty and tasty stew that makes good use of leftover turkey bits. I had these things on hand and tossed them in a pot and it made a great stew that I will make again. You can easily change the vegetables and seasonings to suit your tastes.
