ribs and lentils

Lentils I think are not consumed in States  quite enough. they are delicious and very healthy they are a good source of proteins and fibers, contains  folic  acid and potassium and are good for the heart. In France as the child I remember eating lentils quite often  They are not  inexpensive , they are good braised with meat , and make delicious soup and salad.

this ribs and lentils dish is easy , not very time consuming , rather economic, particularly if you buy the ribs on sale . hope you try it and enjoy it
