Portobello Mushroom Stew with Lentils image

A great, stick-to-your-ribs kind of vegetarian stew. I've made variations of this for over 10 years and meat eaters love it as well as vegetarians. The portobello mushrooms make it savory and so much better than a typical lentil stew. Love your lentils!

This stew is a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.
