Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Lentils clean
  • 2 cups Water
  • 1 pkg Bacon
  • 1 Tomato diced
  • 1 Onion chopped
  • 2 Garlic cloves chopped
  • 2 Cilantro branches
  • 1 tbsp Salt

Instructions
 

  • In a saucepan, bring the lentils to a boil along with water, salt, garlic, and 1/2 onion, turn down the heat and let it cook until softened, about sixty minutes.
  • If you like creamier lentils, use less water to cook them, you can also crush them a little when they’re cooked.
  • In another pan, fry the bacon without oil; add the onion and when onion gets transparent, add diced tomato, cilantro and mix for about two minutes.
  • When the lentils are cooked, add the bacon mixture and let it boil some minutes to mix the flavors.
  • Serve the lentils hot with tortillas.
