I got this recipe from a cookbook called Lighthearted Everyday Cooking.

Lentil & Bean Casserole
5 servings

Ingredients
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup canned kidney beans, drained
1 cup canned lentils, drained
1 cup diced tomatoes, drained
1/4 tsp dried thyme
Dash pepper
Shredded cheese

Directions
1. In flameproof casserole, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion until softened.
2. Add beans, lentils, tomatoes, thyme and pepper. Stir and break up tomatoes with back of spoon. Bring to simmer.
3. Sprinkle with cheese; broil until cheese melts.

This casserole is perfect served over brown rice, quinoa or cous cous. It freezes well – just be sure follow the directions above but skip adding the cheese until you are ready to serve.

This is in the database under "Catherine's Homemade - Lighthearted Everyday Cooking Lentil and Bean Casserole".
