French Green Lentils with Vegetables, Corn off the Cob

It's easy and nutritive cooking with French green lentils. The basic recipe is to bring a combination of water and lentils, in a 3 (water) to 1 (lentil) ratio, along with salt and spices like turmeric or garam masala, to a boil, then simmering, covered, for about 35 minutes. One can also add vegetables; I typically do a brief sautee and then add the water and lentils and go from there.

I made such a dish with squash today, and also served corn-off-the-cob. When I was in California recently, I purchased an avocado slicer, which I tried today with mixed success - perhaps the avocado was too soft, and the ends didn't come out great. It was a good meal, in any case.
