My daughter is the lentil lover in our family and she rates in a 4 stars. This is a very quick & easy recipe. Healthy & easy clean up. I couldn't ask for a nicer recipe. I am sure I will be making again. Thank you.

Made this for dinner. Omitted a lot of ingredients although I am not sure why. Basically the only ingredients I used were red lentils, onion, vegetable stock, powdered ginger, turmeric, and cumin. No salt or pepper or anything else. My husband did not like the smell of it cooking so he wouldn't even try it. I loved it and my 15 month old did too. I ate mine over couscous. I like this recipe and will make it again following the recipe exactly. Had 4 and 1/2 tall baby food jars leftover which I froze. *** Turns out my crockpot emits an odor and makes the house smell so my husband not liking the smell had nothing to do with this dish.

Delicious! I wasn't sure about the AUTO setting, so cooked mine on high 4 to 5 hours. The lentils were soft and the apricots did seem to disappear. The consistency was pretty thick, almost like a stew, but I prefer that anyway(more stays on my spoon:^) Loved the mix of spices and the turmeric gave it a nice color. This was super easy. I'll be sure to make it often.

Very good! I did throw in a few extra veggies. I didn't have time for the crockpot, so I did it on the stove. Stovetop took about 3 hours start to finish. I brought the lentils to a boil, and let cook about an 1 hour over med-high heat, covered, then lowered to low for another 2 hours, covered. Great recipe!
